1. Scam Sniffer: Detected URL redirection attacks targeting Pudgy Penguins users
On December 25, Scam Sniffer issued a security alert, with users reporting that accessing a certain Singapore news portal would redirect to a fake URL for Pudgy Penguins. An investigation revealed that this is part of a larger malicious advertising campaign. The attack mechanism works as follows: Malicious ads are placed through the Google ad network; ads load suspicious code from Adloox; the code checks if you have a web3 wallet; if detected, it redirects to the fake Pudgy Penguins website. Currently, the attack is only targeting Pudgy Penguins users, but this method can easily be applied to other projects, reminding users to carefully check URLs. Preventive measures: Enable ad blockers; use a separate browser for crypto activities; carefully check URLs before connecting wallets; install browser security extensions.
