I received this message while trying to make a deposit to my wallet. I wanted to know if it was an official communication from you? Thank you
Dear Customer,
You recently received an incoming transaction of $… on your wallet. However, we inform you that starting from 01.01.2024, you will need to activate your address by depositing 0.1 BTC to send any ERC-20 token transaction on the blockchain.

So please activate your Brave Wallet by sending 0.1 BTC to your wallet account.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

@casta57 no, not true at all. Not sure where you received that communication nor even if you pay attention to the email address who it would be from. Guessing it certainly wouldn’t be from a @brave.com for their official domain which would be another indication it’s not from Brave.

Then of course is the question what things you have signed up for or done that would somehow trigger the scam attempts.

Anyway, not from Brave and not true.
