⚠️ Warning! New Crypto Scam Alert – Stay Safe! 🛡️
A new scam scheme has been discovered — and it’s already gaining momentum 🚨
Our private Telegram channel – be the first to discover new airdrops! 🚀
The main target: users exploring new tokens (shitcoins), especially through DEXs and aggregators, where project descriptions often include a link to the project’s website 🔗
🧨 How the Scam Works:
- A user visits the token’s website and sees a CAPTCHA form
- It looks like a normal “I’m not a robot” check – nothing suspicious at first glance
- But once you click the CAPTCHA, a file is automatically downloaded
- The browser silently starts downloading a .exe file or something similar — usually disguised under an innocent-looking name
- At the same moment, a malicious script is placed into your clipboard
- The user thinks they’ve copied something useful, but the clipboard now contains dangerous code
- Then, a pop-up appears with a “verification instruction”
- It tells you to paste the code and press a specific key combination — allegedly to confirm your identity or pass final KYC
- The moment you do that — the wallet draining starts
- The script activates, and the scammers gain access to all assets not protected by a hardware wallet
- Your crypto is instantly gone
💻 Vulnerable Devices:
- Windows users are at high risk – most malicious scripts are designed for this OS
- macOS is safer, but not invincible – attackers can adapt anytime
🛡️ How to Protect Yourself:
- Disable auto-downloads in your browser settings
- Never run files downloaded without your permission
- Don’t paste or run commands from sketchy sites – even if it looks “official”
- Use antivirus software and browser blockers (like uBlock Origin)
- Store large amounts in hardware wallets only
🧠 Remember:
If a token website asks you to solve a CAPTCHA, downloads a file, and then instructs you to press buttons or run code — it’s almost certainly a scam.
⚠️ Don’t fall for fake verifications, CAPTCHAs, or KYC requests on shady platforms. These tactics are widely used in wallet-draining attacks.
Stay safe out there! 🧠🧤💪
