How to verify official Oshi channels and protect yourself from scams.

***

### Official domains

> ⚠️ **Only trust these domains.** Anything else claiming to be Oshi is fake.

| Brand    | Official Domain                                                              |
| -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Oshi     | [**oshi.co**](http://oshi.co)                                                |
| GATE 2   | [**gate2.co**](http://gate2.co) (also [gate2.oshi.co](http://gate2.oshi.co)) |
| MahoSeka | [**mahoseka.com**](http://mahoseka.com)                                      |

***

### Oshi will never:

* Ask for your password or login credentials via email or DM
* Request direct crypto transfers outside official websites
* Contact you through unofficial Discord servers
* Ask you to click links in unsolicited messages
* Pressure you to act urgently or "miss out"

***

### Common scams

**Fake social accounts**

Scammers create accounts that look official. Always verify handles match our Official Links exactly.

**Phishing emails**

Emails from domains other than [oshi.co](http://oshi.co), [gate2.co](http://gate2.co), or [mahoseka.com](http://mahoseka.com) are not from us. Check the sender address, not just the display name.

**Unofficial Discord servers**

Our only official Discord is [discord.gg/oshi](http://discord.gg/oshi). If you're unsure whether a server is legitimate, ask in the official Discord or contact <support@oshi.co>.

**"Support" DMs**

Oshi staff will never DM you first asking for account info or payments. We recommend turning off DMs from unknown users in Discord, and never accepting requests from anyone claiming to be part of the Oshi team.

**Too-good-to-be-true offers**

Free rewards, exclusive airdrops, or special deals outside official channels are scams.

### When in doubt

> 📝 **Don't click or respond.** Reach out to <support@oshi.co> to verify before taking any action.

You can also ask in our Discord. The moderation team can help verify if something is legitimate.
