🚨🚨🚨Crypto Scammers Targeting Other Thieves: A New Twist🚨🚨🚨
A new scam has emerged, where crypto scammers are targeting other thieves, according to a security update by Kaspersky. The scam involves creating a trap for wannabe thieves, using a multi-signature wallet and a seed phrase.
How the Scam Works💸💸
1. Scammers create a comment on YouTube or other platforms, posing as a crypto novice, asking how to transfer funds from a wallet.
2. The wallet contains a significant amount of stablecoins (over $8,000 in this case).
3. Thieves attempt to steal the funds by sending TRX tokens to the wallet.
4. However, the wallet is set up as a multi-signature wallet, requiring approval from two or more people to authorize outgoing transactions.
5. The sent tokens are transferred to another wallet controlled by the scammers.
The Scammers' Motive⁉️⁉️
Kaspersky notes that the scammers are targeting other crooked individuals, making them "digital Robin Hoods." The scheme is likely targeting wannabe thieves rather than being a complex operation seeking to steal large amounts of money.
The Rise of Crypto Scams💰💰
This scam is not an isolated incident, with several instances found across the internet. The scammers are using the same seed phrase and tactics to target other thieves.
Stay Vigilant🚨🚨
As the crypto space continues to evolve, scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated. It's essential to remain vigilant and cautious when interacting with unknown individuals or wallets online.
