Topic: Beware of Increasingly Sophisticated Malware Infection Attempts - page 31. (Read 703800 times)

nice good topic thanks for that =D

I just ran Malwarebytes and I found 11-12 different items that needed to be quarantined. I realized this was from several faucets that have pops ups that I have never seen before.

One was SatoshiBakery which was odd because it was a ripple faucet. I thought ooh cool but it said it only gives every 15 mins but it was giving at 5 mins just random. Next thing I know my entire computer's power stating something like 2,8650MB for memory. I have never freaking seen that on my computer like it's working in overdrive or something. So it appears they're hijacking people's computer's and using it to mine.

The other faucet was faucethub. For every claim I made  it was as if they had 5 captchas and then all of these pops ups some of which were 4 on one page, 2 on another page. I realized that many of these places are receiving high revenue dollars for pretty much spamming the hell out of the people showing up to faucet collect. I just don't recall it ever being this bad before where I'm clicking left and right. It's insane. I abandoned ship when I realized their "up to starting point" was actually their minimum. There's no way I was going through all of that and decided eh keep the coins it's not worth the drama.

The other site was coinfaucet.io first off it had me create an account but wouldn't let me in and kept popping up all of these ads yet the button to "log in" was frozen. I tried the guy on twitter but he gavee me the "try it again". Nah I get it I'm in the U.S. so you'll get tier $$$ profits from my IP clicking that crap. No thanks. Seems like it's the same guy from Satoshi Bakery.

Best to just go to the ones you know and trust because since btc's rise there have been shady activities left and right.

Yes, I meant it. There are ways of different associated with the purse bitcoin, you can bind your forum account to a purse of a bitcoin or account. I know how to do it right now.

that's bad!!. Anyone recently went through such bad experience?

How can we identify the malware infection?
 Is there any direction of attack?
can we identify them by the virus guard?

This is one of the most terrifying thing. I am super careful but they are getting stronger each day. 

Recently, in my private messages on the forum, there are a lot of messages from beginners with all sorts of links, I already do not know what to think, blocking all at once does not always work. I need to somehow secure my account

   This MALWARE issue has always been a menace and a major threat to online usage. Its weird to think that some people work this hard to be a nuisance to others. My recommendations are to a good antivirus with internet securities and follow some useful principles when surfing the net.

trader or investors might wants to run of the maximum security exposures with the adminitratives of network computer as securing connection and the details of function on new downloaded software as might to gives with reference to recalls of extension to prepare as attaining field of works with the schemes of casuals with the entry to internet.

The forum is increasingly writing that private messages come from new registered accounts with some kind of link, and if you click on the link, they can steal your account. So be careful guys, do not go to unknown links

блaгoдapю зa пoлeзнyю инфopмaцию, пapни

install a good antivirus so that your work is not disturbed by it. I also recommend you to keep your wallet offline and store your wallet in liquidity.

lets suppose that I click on one of the malware link, How this malware if going to still my cryptos ?

вceм дoбpoй нoчи, a вoзмoжнo зapaжeниe aппapaтнoгo кoшeлькa Ledger или ecли oн выйдeт из cтpoя кaк oбычнaя флэшкa чтo дeлaть?

For me, unfortunately, storing my tokens on the phone is not an option, I very often break it and lose it, it's dangerous for me. I was thinking of buying a removable purse for crypto currency, but it's insanely inconvenient for me personally.

Thanks for the tips. Security is a big issue here since lots of us are using hot wallet to trade on sometimes exotic platforms...

Yes, you have to be very careful.

Thanks this was very informative.

Thanks to this forum and now i need to be vigilant to those people who wants to get or steal my crypto money.
Again kudos to the owner of this thread. Very informative. Great job

With this you are right, where a lot of money is tied, there will always be people who will want to eat this pie))
