Crypto Security Alert: Phishing Scams and North Korean Malware Target Investors Amidst Ethereum (ETH) Price Drop

According to @phantom, traders should be on high alert due to escalating security threats. A recent front-end exploit on a major crypto media website and a similar attack on CoinMarketCap used fake airdrop pop-ups to deploy wallet drainers, tricking users into connecting their wallets. Simultaneously, researchers at Cisco Talos report that a North Korean hacking group, Famous Chollima, is targeting crypto professionals with new Python-based malware called PylangGhost. The attackers use fake job applications from prominent firms like Coinbase and Uniswap to distribute the malware, which is designed to steal credentials and data from over 80 browser extensions, including MetaMask and Phantom wallets. These security risks are unfolding as the market sees a downturn, with Ethereum (ETH) trading at approximately $2405, down 3.6%, and Chainlink (LINK) at $12.84, down 3.45% over the last 24 hours, based on provided market data.
