๐จCrypto Alert!๐จ Ethereum Foundation's mailing list has been compromised due to a vulnerability in SendPulse, the email automation service they use.๐ฑ The breach allowed an attacker to send phishing emails from updates@ethereum.org. The foundation has since restricted access to the mailing list.๐
Users, be aware!๐ Don't click any links sent from that email. Phishing attacks are on the rise. Just last year, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin's X account was hacked, leading to a loss of around $800,000.๐ธ
More recently, CoinStats, a cryptocurrency portfolio tracker, also fell victim to a phishing attack, affecting 1,590 cryptocurrency wallets, representing 1.3% of all its wallets. The app had to be temporarily shut down.๐
SlowMist founder Yu Xian also highlighted that the TON blockchain ecosystem has become a hot target for phishing attacks due to its explosive growth this year.๐
Stay safe out there, crypto enthusiasts! Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!๐๐ฐ
