Crypto Malware spreading on Youtube
According to an article I just read, the malware Pennywise acts as a free bitcoin mining software, which is often advertised via a Youtube video. The threat it poses is that it steals browser data and information regarding crypto wallets. Anyone come across this?
PCs with antivirus usually flag things for a reason, so always do the math on it. Usually if it’s a sketchy Bitcoin miner or faucet, it’s probably data mining or a hack of some sort.
Some people were born before computers became required in every day life to be fair.
People should really stop clicking random links. Feels like 90% of hacks are just that.
Is there anyway of knowing you’ve been hacked? Other then your accounts being drained?
The malware Pennywise acts as a free bitcoin mining software. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Well you cant really say that. If people are involved in crypto, I am assuming that they have the basic know how of what’s legit and what’s not. I really don’t think the crypto community is that stupid.
