Nuked 
Hello friends! Today, let’s talk about a sneaky trick that’s been troubling companies lately: scammers pretending to be TechCrunch staff.
These impostors contact companies, claiming to be journalists or event organizers, and try to gather sensitive information. They craft convincing emails, mimicking real staff members and referencing startup trends to make their pitches seem legit.
Be extra cautious! Always verify the sender’s identity. Check our staff page to see if the person reaching out is listed. If not, it’s a red flag. Even if the name appears there, ensure their job description matches the request.
If you’re unsure, reach out directly to TechCrunch through known contact channels. This simple step helps protect your business and keeps the trust intact between journalists and companies.
Scammers keep evolving their tactics, so staying vigilant is your best defense. Thanks for reading, and stay safe out there!
