This is a warning message👇The crypto circle is in chaos, so be sure to protect yourself
According to a report from a blockchain security company, on Friday, an investor sent more than 1,155 WBTC (tokens anchored to BTC on the Ethereum chain) to a copycat address. This is equivalent to more than $71 million in Bitcoin, and the error was caused by a "poisoned address attack"
This is a phishing technique where scammers create a fake address that mimics the legitimate address commonly used by high-net-worth wallets, which contains the first few characters and the last few numbers
So, the victim's transfer address was "copycatted", and this fake address is likely to be displayed in the victim's wallet record, or implanted with a virus to hijack and modify memos, notepads, clipboards, favorites, and other methods
Currently, the thieves have transferred 1,155 WBTC to different wallets and are converting the funds to Ethereum
Sister Shui reminds everyone that before transferring money, you must be careful and carefully check every character of the wallet address to ensure that the funds are accurately sent to the correct wallet
