Recently, Yucan, founder of Slow雾, made an important alert on the X platform highlighting a new type of scam targeting crypto asset users. One case, in particular, caught attention involving a job seeker who was impersonating an employee of infrastructure development company xLabs. The fraudster established contact with the victim through Telegram and cleverly conducted a seemingly legitimate interview via Zoom to lower the victim’s guard. Near the end of the interview, the fraudster proposed to provide the victim with a meeting software called Meetly, claiming it would help them perform better at work. After the victim downloaded and installed the software, they unexpectedly discovered that this seemingly normal application was actually a meticulously designed scam trap. When the software malfunctioned and failed to function properly, the victim realized they might have been scammed. Fortunately, the victim recognized the severity of the situation and promptly transferred their funds to a different secure wallet, successfully avoiding potential losses. This incident once again underscores the importance of protecting personal and property security in the digital age. Faced with an ever-evolving array of scam tactics, maintaining high vigilance and learning to identify suspicious behavior is key to mitigating risks. Meanwhile, crypto asset holders should also strengthen their awareness of security, using reliable security tools, and avoiding downloading applications from unverified sources to effectively prevent personal information and assets from being stolen.
