Security Considerations
While line.me is an established platform, these capabilities require extra vigilance.
Cryptocurrency Platform
line.me handles cryptocurrency transactions. Crypto transfers cannot be reversed once sent, making these platforms prime targets for phishing. Always verify you're on the exact official URL before entering credentials or approving transactions.
File Hosting
line.me allows users to upload and share files. Any file you download was uploaded by another user—not the platform operator. Scan downloads with antivirus software and only download from sources you trust.
Identity Provider
line.me provides "Sign in with..." authentication for third-party websites. Attackers create fake login pages that look identical to the real one. Always check the URL bar shows the exact correct domain before entering your password.
