đšđ **How Hackers Target Your Binance Account: Stay Alert!** â ïžđĄ
Hackers use different tricks to break into Binance accounts and steal assets. Hereâs how they do it:
- **Social Engineering:** Hackers trick people into giving away passwords or 2FA codes through fake emails, calls, or messages. Always double-check who you're talking to!
- **Password Hacking:** Hackers try many password combinations using brute force attacks. Make sure to use strong and unique passwords!
- **Phishing Emails:** These fake emails look like they're from Binance but lead to harmful websites. Always verify the email address and links before clicking.
- **SIM Swapping:** Hackers take control of your phone number by tricking telecom employees, then use it to intercept 2FA codes. Keep your phone number secure and contact your provider if something seems off.
- **Malware:** Malicious software, like keyloggers, records your keystrokes to steal login details. Donât download unknown files, and keep your devices protected with up-to-date security software.
- **Man-in-the-Middle Attacks (MITM):** Hackers can intercept data between you and Binance on unsecured networks. Always use a secure connection and avoid public Wi-Fi for transactions.
- **API Exploits:** Hackers use weak or poorly coded APIs linked to your Binance account to make unauthorized trades. Be careful with third-party apps and regularly review your API permissions.
- **Dusting Attacks:** Hackers send tiny amounts of crypto to your wallet to track transactions and try to figure out your identity. Keep an eye on your account for any unusual activity.
Stay safe by using strong passwords, enabling 2FA, avoiding suspicious links, and keeping your devices secure. Protect your assets and stay aware! đđ

3 unique ways hackers are stealing your crypto!
#crypto #cryptonews
Blockchain investigator Bitrace has identified three effective ways hackers gain access to crypto investorsâ wallets â search engines such as Google and Bing, pasteboard hijacking and Liquidity mining and coin theft.
Crypto investors claiming âmy coins disappeared suddenlyâ have been found to have recently downloaded crypto applications from unverified sources. Attackers use Search Engine Optimization (SEO) techniques to rank higher on internet searches, unknowingly coercing users to download and sign up to fake apps with backdoors.
Pastaboard hijacking involves the process of automatically grabbing or modifying previously copied text data from clipboards. The technique often skims seed phrases of users, which can be used later to access wallets and drain funds. Bitrace highlighted how a fake Telegram app was being used to replace the destination wallet address copied in the clipboard, causing users to send their tokens to the hacker.
Finally, the classic âhigh yield and low riskâ liquidity scams also ranked as one of the three most popular scams resulting in the disappearance of tokens. Bitrace recommended three methods crypto users could use to trace the stolen funds, starting with tracing back the transaction fees. Investigators often find the hackerâs address by tracking down the source of the transaction fees that was paid to move the stolen funds.
Other ways investors can improve their chances of retrieving stolen funds include using blockchain explorers and professional tools. To know more about how to track stolen crypto, read Cointelegraph Researchâs article on how blockchain analysis helps recover funds.
In addition to targeting investors, attackers often steal funds from crypto organizations as well. As part of the remediation of a recent exploit, Maestrobots, a group of cryptocurrency bots on the Telegram messenger app, paid a total of 610 ETH in its own revenue to cover all the user losses, worth more than $1 million.

Kronos Research Promises $2.5M to Hacker but Thereâs Catch
Coinspeaker Kronos Research Promises $2.5M to Hacker but Thereâs Catch
Cryptocurrency trading firm Kronos Research has extended what seems like a good-faith gesture to its recent hacker. In mid-November, the Taipei-based investment firm was exploited via stolen API keys.
The crypto trading firm has since taken to its official X page to announce the security breach. It said the breach saw the hacker making away with a total of $25 million, a significant loss for the platform.
In an attempt to calm its users, Kronos issued the following statement via an X post:
âAt present, we can confirm that the losses are about $26 million in crypto assets, and despite it being a sizable amount, Kronos remains in good standing. All losses will be covered internally, and no partners will be affected.â
Interestingly, it looks like one way that Kronos intends to cover the losses âinternallyâ is by negotiating with the attacker. A recent message that Kronos sent to the hacker shows the firm requesting that the attacker return 90% of the stolen funds. This means that they get to keep the remaining 10% to themselves. Kronos also promises that there would be no further action from its end once these conditions are met, Etherscan reveals.
It is not exactly clear whether or not the hacker will choose to return the funds. However, Kronos may have subtly suggested in its message that failure to do so would result in the involvement of relevant authorities on the matter.
Kronos Research Hack: Another Proof of a Growing Trend of Hacker Negotiations
It is worth mentioning that the unfolding events in the Kronos hack point to the fact that public, on-chain negotiations between hackers and their victims have become increasingly common.
Just as with Kronos, KyberSwap also recently gave 10% away to an attacker who recently stole funds from the decentralized exchange. Similarly, Curve Finance did the same in August. It negotiated with hackers via transaction signing and also gave out the same 10%.
Whatever might be the case, these occurrences are gradually becoming a trend. A trend where firms may just unknowingly be encouraging continued bad acting without any serious consequences to these hackers.
To put the above statement into perspective, over $1.2 billion has been stolen from Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocols. That is so far in 2023 alone, according to DeFiLlama.

Microsoft Listing Fake Ledger App Leads to $590K of Bitcoin Stolen By Hackers
Hackers stole 16.8 bitcoin [BTC] over the weekend after a fake Ledger Live app was posted on the Microsoft app store.
Blockchain analyst ZachXBT said on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that an additional $180,000 had been stolen across Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain (BSC), bringing the total to $770,000.
On-chain data shows that the hacker received a total of 38 inbound BTC transactions spanning between Oct. 24 and Nov. 5.
The hacker then consolidated those funds before splitting them across numerous wallets in an attempt to cover the trail.
Ledger Live is an app that lets ledger hardware wallet users access and send their assets. It remains unclear how a fake app was approved by the Microsoft store.
Cryptocurrency hacks have been prevalent during the recent rise in asset prices. Last week, hackers managed to siphon $4.4 million worth of crypto from LastPass, a password storage manager that was breached in 2022
Microsoft did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

đ±đ«šCrypto hacker appeared after months: The danger is increasing
The #Hacker behind the $82 million Orbit Chain attack on New Year's Eve transferred $47.7 million of cryptocurrency to #TornadoCash after five months of silence
Crypto Attacker drew attention with ETH transfers
Arkham, one of the first companies to notice the transfer, said in a June 8 Etherscan data shows that the abundance of 47.7 million Ether sent through Tornado Cash is in batches of 100 ETH.
The hack did not move the 20 million stolen Dai (DAI) or other coins removed from the cross-chain bridge. Their balance currently stands at $71.2 million; This includes $51.1 million in Ether and small amounts of Bitcoin (wBTC), Ether (wETH), Orbit Chain (ORC) and USD Coin (USDC).
The attack took place in the last hours of 2023. Orbit Chain said the next day that it had confirmed the cyberattack and was "actively engaging" with international law enforcement. Orbit Chain's âWe are offering a maximum of $8 million.â
According to DefiLlama, approximately $37 million in total value is hidden in Orbit Chain. However, this figure was 75% lower than the 149.25 value locked in the protocol a few hours before the December 31 attacks.

"Breaking: Hacker Returns $153,800 to Victim After $68 Million Theft!
In a surprising turn of events, the hacker behind the $68 million Ethereum theft has returned 51 ETH (~$153,800) to the victim, along with a message to contact them on Telegram. The communication, confirmed by on-chain data on Etherscan, occurred after the victim requested a significant portion of the stolen funds on May 5th.
The hacker, using the Input Data field in the Ethereum transaction, wrote, "Please leave your Telegram, I will contact you," twice to the victim. This gesture comes after the victim warned the hacker about the impossibility of laundering the funds, implying that tracing was inevitable.
In a plea to the hacker, the victim urged them to keep 10% of the stolen amount and return the rest by May 6th, setting a deadline for further restitution. This move marks a dramatic twist in the high-stakes crypto theft, leaving many wondering about the hacker's next move.
