🎣 "Phish Fry": A TAO token holder lost a whopping $11.2 million in a phishing attack. The scammer, a master of disguise, created a fake website, tricked the user into authorizing their tokens, and voila! The tokens were gone, faster than you can say "blockchain". In other news, Microsoft patched a "zero-click vulnerability" in Outlook that could've let hackers execute code without users downloading a file. Remember folks, always keep your software updated! 😅
Meanwhile, DeFi protocol UwU Lend was exploited twice, draining $23.7 million. The attacker manipulated the price oracle, took out insufficiently collateralized loans, and ran off with the cash. In a twist of irony, a fake news story about the incident led to a $140 million liquidation.
Lastly, an OKX user lost over $2 million in a deepfake scam. The attackers used AI to trick OKX staff into authorizing changes to the victim's account. And in a classic "hide-and-seek" move, Lykke exchange was accused of covering up a $22 million loss from a hack. Stay safe out there, crypto comrades!
