PHISHING

🚨 I want to share something that happened to me so that no one else falls into this trap...

Recently, I received a message with a link that looked official, claiming to be from Binance. I thought it was normal because I always receive notifications. However, that link was a phishing attack.

Without realizing it, I entered my details and within minutes, I lost 300USDT💸 from my wallet. It was a hard blow, not only because of the money but also because I realized how easy it is to fall into these traps if you're not alert.

Since then, I learned three key things to protect myself:
✔️ Never click on links that you do not verify yourself.
✔️ Always check that the URL is the official and secure one.
✔️ Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for added security.

I tell you this because I want you to be cautious and not make the same mistake. Phishing is one of the most common scams, and the best defense is prevention.

Share this story so that more people do not fall into these traps.

🛡️ Security is everyone's business. Let's stay cautious and supportive.

Stay #SAFU on X and other socials.

@JasonYanowitz on X narrates his #hack odeal.

I got hacked yesterday. At the risk of looking foolish, I'll share how it happened so you can avoid this nightmare. For the past few weeks, people have been trying to get into my accounts. #Crypto accounts, email, twitter, etc... every few days I get an email that someone is trying to access one of my accounts. Thankfully I have non-text #2FA set up for everything so nothing got hacked. So when I got back from dinner last night and saw this email, I panicked.
Someone in North Cyprus had finally managed to hack into my account. I guess my security wasn't strong enough and they found a loophole.
I clicked the link to "secure my account". I entered my username and password, updated to a new password, and voila: I'm back in. Crisis averted. Or so I thought. Moments later, I got an email saying my email address had been changed.

This was the real hack.

I was now officially locked out of my account. So how did this happen? It turns out the original email, which looks incredibly real, was not so real. Most email clients hide the actual address.
But when you expand it, you can see that this email was sent from "[email protected]" Fake address. I got phished. Very foolish mistake. I don't open Google Docs when they're sent to me. I don't click links. I typically check addresses. But Friday 8pm after a long week, they got me. I am aware this thread exposes a pretty dumb mistake but if I can save one person from this same mistake, it's worth it.

Some takeaways:
- Don't click links
- If you do click a link, review the actual email address
- Set up non-text 2FA on everything
- If you've done that, trust your own security process
- If you think you've been hacked, slow down and think about how this could have happened
Big thank you to @KeithGrossman and some folks at X for helping me get my account back so quickly.

🚨#CyberSecurityAlert: There are now over 2,650 fake DeepSeek phishing sites, with a significant spike since Jan 26.

These sites trick users into revealing login credentials or buying virtual assets through misleading domains and interfaces.

Stay vigilant and double-check URLs! 🛑 #phishing #DeepSeek #CryptoScams

Twenty malicious #npm packages impersonating the #Hardhat #Ethereum✅ development environment have targeted private keys and sensitive data. These packages, downloaded over 1,000 times, were uploaded by three accounts using #typosquatting techniques to trick developers. Once installed, the packages steal private keys, mnemonics, and configuration files, encrypt them with a hardcoded AES key, and send them to attackers. This exposes developers to risks like unauthorized transactions, compromised production systems, #phishing , and malicious dApps.

Mitigation tips: Developers should verify package authenticity, avoid typosquatting, inspect source code, store private keys securely, and minimize dependency usage. Using lock files and defining specific versions can also reduce risks.

Serenity : 🧠 You Are the Final Firewall

A major cyberattack has just compromised over 184 million user credentials, affecting global tech giants including Google, Apple, and Microsoft. The hackers exploited multiple systems and leaked login #data across the dark web — exposing the alarming fragility of password based #security models.

According to security firm Web3 Scam Sniffer, over $127 million in #Criptomonedas was stolen from investors in Q3 2024, with approximately $46 million lost in September to phishing attacks.

In phishing attacks, scammers trick investors into linking their crypto wallets, such as #MetaMask , to fraudulent services. Linking crypto wallets to #phishing websites allows scammers to withdraw#cryptocurrenciesfrom users without further authentication.

What's the first thing I do - and You should too - when received an #email from #Binance ?

I check my anti- #phishing code ✅

Did you set it up?

🔴 Phishing is attacking: scammers are sending fake SMS messages on behalf of Binance

If you received a suspicious SMS from Binance — don't panic, but stay alert.

A massive phishing attack on exchange users has been recorded online.

📌 What's happening:

• Users are receiving SMS messages with alarming notifications such as:

— "New 2FA binding detected"

— "API connection to Ledger Live"

• The victim is urged to urgently call a fake "support service"

• Some messages even arrive in the same chat as real Binance notifications

• Data leaks from Binance and Gemini users may have reached the dark web — hence the targeted attacks

🛡 Binance has already responded:

— The anti-phishing code now works in SMS as well, not just in email

— The code is created by the user and will be displayed in all official messages

⚠️ Impact on the crypto market — neutral, but reputational risks and growing distrust of centralized platforms remain. And now the question: do you have the anti-phishing code enabled?

• What is a phishing scam?

Phishing scams are deceptive attempts to trick individuals into disclosing sensitive information such as usernames, passwords or financial details. These scams, usually perpetrated through fake emails, messages or websites, often impersonate legitimate organizations.

• What you need to do to avoid becoming a victim:

Don't click on unknown links and look for red flags in incoming messages, such as unusual return addresses, typos, or requests for sensitive information.

Verify the legitimacy of requests through official channels by adding additional layers of protection, such as two-factor authentication.

Don't try to sell random tokens or NFTs that appear in your wallet.

Have a dedicated phone or PC for trading and wallet related activities.
