How to setup anti-phishing code

An anti-phishing code is an additional account protection feature that increases the user's security level. After activating this function, a user-defined secret word will be added to all emails sent on behalf of the exchange, which will make it possible to verify the authenticity of the sender and prevent phishing attempts.

Phishing is a cyberattack method aimed at collecting sensitive personal data such as bank details, passwords, and personal information. This is one of the types of social engineering: fraudsters use psychological manipulation and the human factor.

Phishing attack tools - emails prompting you to enter sensitive data on a third-party (fraudulent) site that is identical to the original, for example, fake password reset requests or bank confirmation requests. In the crypto industry, scammers use phishing to spoof exchange websites, replace the user's wallet address with the fraudster's wallet address.
