💸 How to lose $110,000 in 20 years because of one wrong decision, and what safety tips does a victim of scam give?
— Someone approached me with a request to join a private group. To do this, you had to download the Korean application Kakaocall.
— They sent me a download link, but I was skeptical about it, so I went to the official website and downloaded it there.
— The scammer said that the conference function is in beta version, so you need to download the application from the link.
— I first downloaded the application on my Windows laptop. It seemed to work fine. So I went and downloaded it onto my main Mac laptop.
— The application asked for “terminal permission”, I rejected it. But they still started withdrawing crypto from all my wallets.

⏺ Turn off the Internet as soon as you realize that you have been deceived.
⏺ Do not download any questionable applications on your main laptop.
⏺ Don't trust anyone who sends links.
⏺ Don't trust anyone who tries to help you after you publicly report the theft on Twitter.
