Sophisticated Crypto Scam Exposed: Fake Codes, Fake Support, Real Losses
According to a report by Odaily, SlowMist’s Chief Information Security Officer (@im23pds) has issued a critical warning about a highly coordinated phishing scam that has led to more than $1.1 million in stolen cryptocurrency.
The scam uses fake withdrawal verification codes sent via SMS to lure victims into calling a fake support number. Attackers then escalate the scam with follow-up impersonation calls from someone claiming to be a Ledger representative.
