Bitget Launches Anti-Scam Month 2026, Recovers $32.3 Million for Users

VICTORIA, Seychelles, June 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has launched Anti-Scam Month 2026 under the theme “More Assets, Stronger Shield. Stay Safe in the Multi-Asset Era.” The annual initiative focuses on helping users navigate an increasingly complex threat landscape as digital asset platforms expand beyond crypto into broader multi-asset ecosystems.

The campaign is accompanied by the release of key security and fraud prevention results from 2025. During the year, Bitget intercepted more than 150 million malicious attack requests, identified over 13,000 high-risk malicious IP addresses, and handled 18,135 user protection cases. The platform’s security team also helped users recover approximately $32.3 million linked to security incidents and fraudulent activity.

“The industry is entering a multi-asset era where users can access a wider range of products and markets through a single platform. As that access expands, security responsibilities increase too,” said Hon Ng, Chief Legal Officer at Bitget. “Protecting users requires continuous risk monitoring, rapid response mechanisms, security education, and close cooperation across the industry. Anti-Scam Month reflects the importance of building those protections alongside product innovation.”

Throughout 2025, Bitget continued to strengthen its security framework across account protection, asset custody, fraud prevention, and platform risk management. The platform expanded Passkey authentication capabilities based on FIDO2 and WebAuthn standards, enhanced multi-factor authentication coverage for high-risk account actions, strengthened anti-phishing protections, and improved device management controls that allow users to monitor and manage account access in real time.

Bitget also expanded its real-time threat detection and web security infrastructure in 2025. Security systems recorded more than 2.8 billion interceptions through custom protection rules and mitigated over 1.5 billion DDoS-related attack attempts. The platform’s monitoring capabilities were further enhanced through machine learning-based behavioral analysis designed to identify suspicious activity and emerging threats across multiple layers of the ecosystem.

User education remained a major focus of Bitget’s security strategy. Anti-Scam Month campaigns conducted across 2024 and 2025 reached approximately 1.38 billion users globally through security awareness content, educational resources, and community engagement initiatives. The company also expanded its Anti-Scam Hub, maintained its public bug bounty program, and introduced interactive initiatives such as the Smarter Eyes Challenge, which attracted close to 50,000 participants through simulated phishing and scam detection exercises.

Bitget continued to collaborate with leading blockchain security organizations, including SlowMist and Elliptic, to support threat intelligence sharing, anti-fraud research, and broader industry awareness efforts. Through a combination of platform security, user education, and industry cooperation, the company continues to invest in creating a safer environment for users navigating digital and tokenized financial markets.

As the Official Apparel and Jersey Partner, U.S. Polo Assn. outfitted all teams throughout the tournament with custom-designed performance jerseys while also providing staff uniforms and immersive brand experiences designed to connect consumers to the authentic roots of the brand and the sport of polo.

Players distributed branded U.S. Polo Assn. caps to spectators directly from horseback after matches each day, creating memorable moments that brought fans closer to the action.

For the first time, attendees also experienced "The Divot Stomp," U.S. Polo Assn.’s signature cocktail, offered exclusively in VIP hospitality areas and served during the event’s iconic halftime tradition each day. The specialty drink, served in reusable aluminum cups with custom polo mallet stirrers, added another interactive element to the weekend celebration, with fans taking them home as keepsakes.

The three-day polo festival also provided the perfect stage for U.S. Polo Assn.’s global polo shirt campaign, "An Icon Born from the Game," highlighting the authentic connection between the brand’s most recognizable product and its origins in the sport of polo. Throughout the festival grounds, attendees experienced activations centered around the iconic polo shirt while exploring new seasonal collections inspired by sport and style.

by

Holafly Global Brand Ambassador Francisco Cabral

ATP Top 20 doubles player Francisco Cabral has joined Holafly as a global brand ambassador. As part of the partnership, the highest-ranked Portuguese doubles player in ATP history will share moments from life on the ATP Tour. This content will showcase how athletes stay prepared during constant travel.

DUBLIN, June 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Holafly, the global leader in travel eSIMs, today announced a new partnership with ATP Top 20 doubles player Francisco Cabral, who joins the company as a global brand ambassador. The collaboration brings together one of the world’s leading eSIM companies with one of tennis’ most internationally active players.

Few athletes embody modern international travel quite like Cabral. The Portuguese star competes in approximately 35 to 40 tournaments each season across Europe, North America, Asia, Australia and the Middle East. Constant adaptation to new countries, cultures, climates and time zones means his experience closely reflects the realities faced by millions of international travellers every day.

Cabral has firmly established himself as one of the most consistent doubles players on the ATP Tour, reaching a career-high ranking of World No. 19 and becoming the highest-ranked Portuguese doubles player in ATP history. His career includes six ATP Tour doubles titles, fifteen ATP Challenger titles and appearances at all four Grand Slam tournaments. In 2022, he and Nuno Borges became the first all-Portuguese team to win the Estoril Open, while his recent quarterfinal run at the Australian Open further cemented his place among the world’s leading doubles players.

As part of the partnership, Cabral will share firsthand moments from life on the ATP Tour, offering fans a clear view into the realities of competing around the world, from packed tournament schedules and long-haul journeys to the challenges that come with constant travel.

The collaboration will also spotlight Holafly’s Always On feature, which includes 1GB of backup data at no extra cost. Always On is designed to provide travellers with added reassurance during unexpected situations, ensuring they have a backup plan when they need it most.

“Francisco represents a new generation of athletes whose careers take them all over the world. Every season means new countries, new cities and new challenges, but also incredible opportunities. His journey reflects the way millions of people travel today, which makes him a natural fit for Holafly and everything we stand for,” said Daniela Prado, Brand Director at Holafly.

The partnership begins as Cabral continues to compete on some of the biggest stages in professional tennis, including Wimbledon, the US Open and the Australian Open. Throughout the season, Holafly and Cabral will bring fans closer to life beyond the court, highlighting the experiences that come with competing around the world.

As careers become increasingly international, the partnership between Holafly and Francisco Cabral reflects a shared belief that exploring the world should be shaped by opportunity, not uncertainty.

‫من قمم التبت إلى قلب الشرق الأوسط: كيف صاغت مركبة فينفاست في إف تفوقها على أرض الواقع؟

by

خضعت سيارة فينفاست في إف 8 (VinFast VF 8) لاختبارات تجاوزت حدود صالات العرض بكثير، لتنتقل من الطرق الجبلية شاهقة الارتفاع إلى حرارة الشرق الأوسط، ولم يقتصر هذا النجاح على تأكيد قوتها كسيارة رياضية متعددة الاستخدامات (SUV) فحسب، بل برهن على الموثوقية العالية التي يلمسها العميل في تجربة اقتنائها الفعليه.

دبي، الإمارات العربية المتحدة – 5 يونيو 2026 – صنعت سيارة فينفاست في إف 8 لنفسها مكانة قوية قبل أن يطأ المشتري صالات العرض بوقت طويل، إذ خضعت هذه المركبة الكهربائية بالكامل، والمنتمية إلى الفئة (D) من السيارات الرياضية متعددة الاستخدامات، لاختبارات صارمة على مدار الأعوام الثلاثة الماضية، حيث شملت رحلاتها قطع آلاف الكيلومترات عبر فيتنام، واجتياز طرق وعرة في التبت، وصولاً إلى المنافسة في أكثر أسواق السيارات طلبًا في العالم، بما في ذلك أمريكا الشمالية وأوروبا والشرق الأوسط.

تجمع سيارة فينفاست في إف 8 بين التصميم العصري والمقصورة الفسيحة والأداء القوي، إذ صُممت بالتعاون مع استوديو بينينفارينا الإيطالي الشهير، حيث توفر فئة في إف إيكو (VF 8 Eco) مدى قيادة يصل إلى 493 كم وفقاً لدورة القيادة الأوروبية الجديدة.، بينما تمنح فئة في إف 8 بلس (VF 8 Plus) قوة تصل إلى 402 حصان وعزم دوران يبلغ 620 نيوتن متر عبر نظام الدفع الكلي للعجلات، وتضم هذه السيارة الرياضية متعددة الاستخدامات، المصممة خصيصًا لتنقل العائلات، تقنيات متطورة لمساعدة السائق وتحديثات الأنظمة اللاسلكية، بالإضافة إلى والخدمات الذكية عبر الشبكة.

غير أن السيارة لم تعد تشكل سوى جزءٍ واحدٍ من الحكاية بالنسبة لمشتري اليوم، إذ أصبحت التجربة التي تلي عملية الشراء توازي في أهميتها تجربة القيادة ذاتها.

سلط تقريرٌ صدر مؤخراً عن شركة إي واي (EY) الضوءَ على هذا التحول، حيث وجد أن العملاء باتوا يثمنون بشكل متزايد الراحة والشفافية وتجارب الخدمة الرقمية طوال رحلة الامتلاك [1]. وحدد التقرير ثلاث أولويات رئيسية لشركات صناعة السيارات تلبيةً لتلك التوقعات؛ وتمثلت في توسيع شبكات الخدمة، وتحسين توافر قطع الغيار والخدمات اللوجستية، وتعزيز التواصل الرقمي مع العملاء.

تعكس استراتيجية ما بعد البيع العالمية لشركة فينفاست هذه الأولويات بشكل وثيق.

فقد أعلنت شركة فينفاست في مطلع هذا العام عن إبرام اتفاقيات مع 29 شريكاً دولياً في مجال خدمات ما بعد البيع عبر أمريكا الشمالية وأوروبا والشرق الأوسط والهند وإندونيسيا والفلبين وكازاخستان، وستسهم هذه الشراكات في توسيع شبكة عالمية يُتوقع أن تتجاوز 1,100 ورشة خدمة في عام 2026، مدعومةً بتدريب فني موحد، وأنظمة مراقبة الجودة، وتوزيع انسيابي لقطع الغيار.

تأتي هذه الجهود لتعزز شراكة شركة فينفاست الحالية مع شركة الطاير للسيارات، وهي إحدى مجموعات السيارات الرائدة في المنطقة، وذلك بالنسبة لعملاء الشرق الأوسط. وتهدف شركة فينفاست من خلال هذه التعاونات إلى تقديم معايير خدمة متسقة عالمياً، مع الاستفادة في الوقت ذاته من الخبرات المحلية والمعرفة بالسوق.
ويحظى توافر قطع الغيار باهتمام كبير أيضاً، إذ أنشأت شركة فينفاست نظاماً لسلسلة التوريد يستهدف تسليم قطع الغيار المطلوبة بشكل شائع في غضون 24 ساعة في الأسواق الرئيسية، مما يساعد على تقليل فترات توقف المركبات وتحسين تجربة العميل.

باتت الخدمات الرقمية تشكل جزءاً أكبر من تجربة الامتلاك اليومية بالتزامن مع ذلك؛ حيث يستطيع المالكون، عبر منصة في إف كونيكت (VF Connect)، الوصول إلى معلومات الحالة الفنية للمركبة، وأنظمة التحكم في المركبة عن بُعد، وخدمة المساعدة على الطريق، والتشخيص الذاتي للأعطال، ومزامنة ملف تعريف السائق، وتحديثات البرامج عبر الهواء، وتجسد هذه الميزات تماماً نوعية تجارب الاتصال التي يعتقد محللو القطاع أنها ستشكل مستقبل امتلاك المركبات.

ويعزز نهجَ شركة فينفاست مزيدٌ من مزايا الامتلاك المتاحة في الشرق الأوسط، والتي تشمل ضماناً للمركبة لمدة 10 سنوات أو 200,000 كم، وضماناً للبطارية لمدة 10 سنوات غير محدود الكيلومترات، وتغطية مجانية للخدمة، ودعم الخدمة المتنقلة، بالإضافة إلى خدمة المساعدة على الطريق على مدار الساعة طوال أيام الأسبوع.

لم تعد جودة المركبة وحدها كافية مع تغلغل صناعة السيارات بشكل أعمق في عصر المركبات الكهربائية؛ إذ يبحث العملاء عن الطمأنينة والموثوقية في توفر الدعم والمساعدة بعد مغادرتهم صالة العرض بوقت طويل.

ويأتي هذا التوجه ليجعل قصة مركبة فينفاست في إف 8 تبرز بشكل لافت، إذ لا تشكل رحلتها من الطرق السريعة في فيتنام إلى الطرق الوعرة في التبت وظروف الشرق الأوسط القاسية مجرد دليل على متانتها فحسب، بل تعكس أيضاً التركيز الأوسع لشركة فينفاست على منح العملاء راحة البال من خلال خدمة موثوقة، ودعم قوي، وتجربة امتلاك صُممت لتدوم وتستمر.

Eastern Military Zone Foils Four Drug-Smuggling Attempts Using Guided Balloons

by


Amman: Eastern Military Zone The Eastern Military Zone foiled four attempts to smuggle large quantities of narcotic substances using electronically guided balloons within its area of responsibility early Tuesday.

According to Jordan News Agency, a military source stated that border guard units detected the balloons and tracked their movement before intercepting and bringing them down, along with their payloads, inside Jordanian territory.

The operation was carried out in coordination with security agencies and the Anti-Narcotics Department. The seized materials were subsequently transferred to the relevant authorities for the necessary legal procedures.
