The account of the business analytics company MicroStrategy on social network X (formerly Twitter), which is banned in Russia, was hacked, and scammers posted malicious links to a fake distribution of the “official” MSTR token on the account. aze Ethereum. The user who clicked on the link was taken to a page copied from MicroStrategy . There he was asked to connect a wallet and request fake MSTR tokens. As soon as users accepted a number of permissions in their WebZ wallet, attackers were able to automatically withdraw tokens from their wallets. According to independent blockchain detective ZachXBT and the Scam Sniffer platform, losses incurred by users as a result of fraud exceeded $440,000. Scam Sniffer reported that only one A user lost over $420,000 after clicking on a malicious link just minutes after it was published on the MicroStrategist account. An overly trusting or greedy person lost altcoins in the amount of $424,786, and one transfer was sent to the attacker, and the other two were redirected to a wallet associated with the hacker group PinkDrainer. It is known that the victim lost tokens of Wrapped Balance AI (wBAI) worth $1,34,000, Chintai (CHEX) - worth $122,000 and Wrapped Pocket Network (wPOKT) - worth $45,000. According to Ethereum DeBank, the wallet is currently evil the plotter contains tokens based on Ethereum costing $329,000.A British crypto investor under the pseudonym Cobie noted that the MicroStrategic company specializes exclusively in bitcoins, so the distribution of a token on Ethereum is already a kind of hint, that something is wrong here. I'm not trying to blame the victim, but you have to be special to believe that MicroStrategy will issue an ETH token after Saylor has been relentlessly saying for years that “there is no second best.” o”, “you only use one chair”, etc.
