The warning came on the official Twitter account of "MetaMask" as indicated above.
The MetaMask portfolio has denied the existence of any support tools it provides that are based on Google Docs.
The wallet also told users that the safest way to get help is by using the official "MetaMask" support system link.
The link can only be found in the "Get help" option within the MetaMask app.
In addition, users can report phishing in the wallet app.
