How to Spot and Report Phishing Scams on PurvX

Scammers may impersonate PurvX through fake emails, text messages, phone calls, or lookalike websites. These phishing attempts are designed to trick you into sharing sensitive information—such as passwords, card details, or verification codes. It’s important to know what to look for so you can stay safe when buying or selling online.

Common Signs of a Phishing Scam

Phishing messages often carry telltale signs. Here’s what to watch out for:

  • Suspicious sender
    Official communication from PurvX will always come from @purvx.com. If the email or SMS is from another domain or an unrelated number, be cautious.

  • Unfamiliar or unexpected message content
    If you receive a message through PurvX that contains unusual links, urgent requests, or anything that feels off, it may have been sent by another user attempting to impersonate official communication.

    PurvX does not use the internal messaging system to ask for account information, payment verification, or sensitive data.

  • Urgent language or threats
    Messages that claim your account is compromised or ask you to act immediately are designed to create panic.

  • Requests for sensitive information
    We will never ask for your password, card details, OTPs, or personal information via email, text, or message.

  • Too-good-to-be-true offers
    Free items, instant payouts, or large discounts that require you to click a link or enter details should be treated with suspicion.

  • Links to unofficial websites
    Scammers may send you to sites that look like PurvX. Always check that the URL ends in purvx.com.
    Examples of scam URLs:

    • purvx-id-check.com
    • secure.purvxhelp.net
    • purvx.id-order.live

Example: Fake Message Sent via PurvX Messaging

Here's an example of a scam message users have reported receiving via the PurvX internal messaging system:

Why this is clearly a scam:

  • PurvX does not use the messaging system for official communication
    Any message asking you to verify your account, confirm identity, or click a link is not from us.

  • The sender name is misleading
    While this one says "Colara L", scammers often use names like PurvX Support, Customer S, or PurvX S to mimic official communication.

  • The link is fraudulent
    It contains "purvx" to trick users, but it’s hosted on a scam domain (purvx.id-order.live) which is not affiliated with PurvX.

  • There’s a false sense of urgency
    Claims like “You have 24 hours or your profile will be restricted” are a common pressure tactic used in phishing scams.

⚠️ Never click on any links sent via the messaging system. If you're unsure, contact support@purvx.com before taking any action.
