Mutual Praise and Review
1. Security Alert Theme
- Phishing Attack Alert: Tweets reveal a recent large-scale phishing email scam targeting cryptocurrency users, with attackers impersonating well-known platforms like WalletConnect, Cointelegraph, Token Terminal, etc.
- Forgery Methods:
- Sending fake 'airdrop' or 'test eligibility' emails using highly imitated official email addresses (e.g., variations of [email protected]).
- Embedding malicious links to induce users to connect their wallets and sign malicious transactions, resulting in asset theft.
- Scale of Loss: On-chain detective ZachXBT tracked and confirmed that related addresses have stolen $580,000 (primarily in ETH), involving over 280 types of tokens.
2. Official Action Statement
- Denial of Airdrop Activities: WalletConnect explicitly states that it has not initiated any email airdrop activities, and all official messages are only released through verified channels (official website/Twitter/blog).
- Community Collaboration Call:
- Urging users to report suspicious emails to the security team.
- Forwarding ZachXBT's investigation report to leverage community power to expand the warning scope.
