$ 71 Million Lost in Address Poisoning Attack 😲
In a recent cryptocurrency scam, a person lost $ 71 million in wrapped bitcoin (WBTC) due to an address poisoning attack.
What is Address poisoning?
Address poisoning involves scammers creating a wallet address that closely mimics the victim’s address.
How It Happened:
- Hackers spam the victim with small transactions from a fake address.
- The victim mistakenly sent funds to the scammer’s address.
Always double-check the entire wallet address while doing transactions.
Be cautious of minor transactions from unknown sources, which may be a setup for this type of scam.
