Happycoin.club - According to the technical director of Ripple, asset holders should be prepared for a new wave of fraud. This time, according to David Schwartz, it is aimed at identity theft.
His warning came after one of the users under the nickname @3YearLetterman said that he communicated with Ripple support, and in the end it turned out to be a phishing attack skillfully disguised as an official service.
The message received by @3YearLetterman indicated that the service was investigating his account for copyright infringement, and to avoid account suspension, he needed to follow the link and fill out a review form.
David Schwartz warned each of his subscribers that they should ignore such messages and under no circumstances click on the link! He explained that the link leads to a phishing resource that collects clients’ personal data and other information.
Phishing attacks are one of the most common types of online fraud and many users and companies fall victim to them. Criminals are constantly improving their methods, which allows them to steal private information about clients and then steal their finances.
Despite all the calls from information security experts, many users do not exercise due diligence and become victims of hackers.
