📢📢News in the blockchain industry! Coinbase users have recently become the target of scammers, and one user was defrauded of up to $1.7 million in crypto assets! 😱😱

According to Node co-founder Tegan Kline, a self-hosted wallet user was tricked by scammers into sharing part of the mnemonic phrase, resulting in the theft of $1.7 million in crypto assets in the wallet. The scammers impersonated the Coinbase security team and contacted the victim by phone and email, claiming that the victim's wallet was "directly connected to the blockchain" and used this as an excuse to induce the victim to enter the mnemonic phrase to stop the transaction.

Although the victim realized that this was "unsafe", he still entered "partial" mnemonic phrases, and as a result, the assets in the wallet were stolen a few hours later. 😔😔

This incident once again reminds us to protect our crypto assets and beware of scams! 💪💪At the same time, we remain optimistic about the prospects of Bitcoin. 🚀🚀
