How Will I Know if I Win a Chime Sweeps?

1. Someone asking you to verify your email address? 💻

Scam! We’ll never ask you to do that. Thanks to $ChimeSigns, we will add money to your account automatically—without needing your email address confirmed.

As your financial services provider, we know who you are, and you can rest assured that we’ll make winning as seamless as possible! 😌

2. Someone asking you to login to a sketchy website? 🌐

No, thank you. We’re an official company with an official website, and we’ll never send you to a third-party website if you’ve won a Chime sweeps. Beware of weird, misspelled messages, and always, ALWAYS check the URL! 🔗 As a best practice, avoid clicking on links in messages from accounts claiming you have won sweeps. If you do and end up on a third-party website, exit immediately and DO NOT provide any personal information.

3. Someone asking you for personal info? 👎

I don’t think so. If anyone reaches out to ask you for your full name, address, password, or pin, they’re trying to scam you. Because Chime uses $ChimeSigns to verify winners, you’ll never have to give out any personal information if you’ve won.💲

4. Someone with a sketchy username? 👋

Just say no. @ch1m3 and @chime_sweepstakes_123 are not “just reaching out to congratulate you,” they’re out for your money! Also, avoid messages from accounts seeming to be from “Chime agents” like @chimesweepsagent or @chimesupportagent as they are not affiliated with Chime.

There’s only one real @Chime on Instagram, Twitter and Tiktok, and we’re verified with a big, blue checkmark. When it comes to fake accounts, the rule is to block and ignore. 🚫
