People ask whether binance.info is “the real Binance”. The safe habit is narrower than arguing about a single TLD in a chat.
Binance’s own security guidance centres on checking URLs, emails and handles through Binance Verify on the official site, and on recognising phishing pages that clone the login screen. Documented lookalikes have included constructions such as binance.info.com — an extra label that is easy to miss when you are rushed. Cold SMS and phone calls that claim to be Binance support are a separate, well-worn trap; Binance’s published advice is that support will not ask you to send funds or hand over 2FA backup keys through private channels.
In practice: type binance.com yourself (or use a bookmark you created), and paste any doubtful link into Binance Verify before you enter a password. Regional or alternate hosts can appear in the wild; that does not make every “binance-something” page safe, and it does not make an unexpected message legitimate.
If a page asks you to move coins to a “secured wallet”, install an unknown plugin, or share authenticator backup codes, stop — regardless of how close the domain looks.
If this pattern matches something you’ve been offered, start at Get help. If someone is already pitching “recovery”, read Fake recovery before you pay another fee.
