๐จAttention BTC enthusiasts! A scammer has managed to steal a whopping $385,000 worth of Ether (ETH) in under 24 hours through a series of SIM-swapping hacks targeting users of the popular platform Friend.Tech. ๐ฑ
The hacker manipulated the SIM cards of four unsuspecting Friend.Tech users, with the transfer of these illicit cryptocurrency assets traced back to the same individual. Friend.Tech users have faced similar attacks before, with four more users reporting drained accounts earlier in the week due to SIM swaps or phishing attacks. ๐
In response, Friend.Tech has rolled out a new feature that enables users to eliminate specific login options, specifically phone numbers, to better protect their accounts. ๐ก๏ธ So, stay vigilant, and let's hope for a more secure future for our beloved BTC! ๐
