How to avoid scams

Stars and Premium are popular, so scammers are everywhere around them. Five simple rules keep you safe.

  1. Never share the login code Telegram sends you — even if someone promises Stars.
  2. Channels and bots promising “free Stars” or “free Premium” are usually scams.
  3. Telegram's official bot is only @PremiumBot. Official messages come from the verified “Telegram” service chat.
  4. Before paying, check the price, the amount and the recipient's username.
  5. Keep your payment receipt and purchase history.

Qulay Star never asks for your login code or password: orders are sent to an @username only.
