Few months ago Ledger database was hacked, we all know about it. I guess what we don't know now is that peoples are receiving emails possibly from them. They are pretending as Metamask, TrustWallet and maybe more.

I was away few weeks and few days ago I came home. While checking my email inbox to clean it I found several emails asking for Wallet verification, Email verification or they will disable and remove the wallet. Patterns are the same. First is an email asking for verification by x date and then following up more emails. All leads to link given in the email. I read a few and it seems the emails are very similar for both Metamask and TrustWallet.

An example email:



This is an awareness post. If you are receiving emails to verify xyz wallets or even asking to verify the exchanges you are with, please do not respond or click any link. You may end up as their victim and will risk the security of your device.

Stay safe!

Cheers,
