Crypto is a target for many hackers lately and one of the ways they infiltrate is by use of malwares, stay safe and be wary of sources of certain files before downloading

I know about this and I often try to stay safe, I don't download apps directly from playstore, I always try to get a direct link from the website or something of that sort

never install or download any app from unknown sources
You also avoid save any file from telegram which comes in form spreadsheer, zip or exe formats these are all malwares used by hackers to steal private informations, or compromise your wallets.

It is neverending fight, so we must watch out for any new threats, malware and viruses,
and more so if we have our wallets installed on computers

These malware's are very common on Telegram Telegram especially, just last week I fell for one and got every file on my phone wiped off, it was a very painful experience for me. I learnt my lesson though, it's just sad I had to learn the hard way. This post has gone a step further in preventing more people from falling.
It's quite unfortunate that malware are also sent via telegram. I feel so scared because of the prevalence of telegram airdrop bots which has been deployed by projects for the execution of airdrop, i only hope that the bots are not hijacked by hackers and used to take advantage of the phones of individuals.
Airdrops is actually a risky venture owing to the fact that one needs to consistently input personal information into forms and this may be used by the hackers or bots to get out passwords. Its always good to be very sure and very careful carrying out airdrops task.
This is so sad. I think a solution to this would be a good project to recommend, not a typical AV but an anti-virus specifically designed to combat this problem or minimize the risk
Incredible! The information is very complete and valuable, the truth is that cybercriminals seek different methods to scam people and generate problems, we must be very attentive.
When I was engaged in collecting various viruses and I want to tell you that these are not the most common actions of viruses that are aimed at holders of cryptocurrencies.
yes you are right Most of the airdrops are not legit and are just a simple strategy employed by hackers to take advantage of the information of airdrop hunters
it best to verify the authenticity of an airdrop from the official telegram of the project before participating.

Just curious, is there a malware detection that someone has created that detect malware when you are on forum such as this.
Userful data for me, I never thought at the top of the priority list that scammer could be on this forum and post some malignant substance here.
a debt of gratitude is in order for This data I will be careful about substance and connections before I snap on it.

This is to say,we should be mindful to whatever link we click or download. Sophisticated malware virus pop-up like a link and cause more damage you could ever think. It's very terrible for such to experience such stuff here. We should report when we see one
I read the OP on this thread and after reading it, I though then who can I trust. And I better be very careful about any link I click because if I understand it, THAT is the only way to get a malware. Funny but after reading the OP, a few post down were links on post. One saying I am going to add this to the Black list. My first reaction is don't click on that link it could be Malware.
So how do we know if a link is good or not. And how do we know if it is not a very sophisticated Malware.
Is there anything we can do? Bitcointalk is a great asset. I hate to see this happen.
Perhaps the idea I posted in another thread about creating an OPTIONAL membership called Verified Member might be a great solution. This way if you select the options and are verified through some sort of quasi KYC/AML method of verification it would give those reading the post a better assurance that the posts, the information and, if there are links, knowing the links are safe.

Guys are we ready for IEO. Get ready to fill ur bags with XDMC token. MPCX hosting its IEO on OOBTC EXCHANGE the BIGGEST Singapore Exchange. First project to hold its IEO. dont miss out
This is indeed an opportunity every investor must not let to slip through his/her fingers. MPCX is a project that is well-planned and every measures has been taken to ensure increase in success.
I have said it before, I will say it again, I stand with this project and look forward to 28th June.
Concerning your escapade with MPCX do you have an idea of how long the tokensale would last? I know they've had several ICO's and tokensales in the past and was even thinking that the project has raised the necessary fund to commence the project development.
Based on the information I read the tokensale would start on the 28th of June in two different exchange which are ooobtc and probit. The token sale would end on the 11th of July on probit and on the 14th of July on ooobtc exchange. The tokens would be sold for $0.06 on both exchange during the IEO sales.

Just noting this. Thanks for the security info. I will try to be careful with any downloads and website visits onwards. Hackers aren't smiling nowadays causing a lot in the process..
