A Public Service Announcement from Noah for the Shuffle community/users and the gambling community and crypto users in general.
In the interest of protecting our players, we've been looking into the recent rise of 3rd party 'auto promo code claimers' that are being spread in some Telegram groups.
Our team has confirmed that at least one of these programs contains malware in the form of a keylogger. If you have downloaded any of these programs, we would recommend that you stop using the infected device immediately and do a thorough malware check. We also recommend that you change any passwords that may be compromised.
Whenever you use a 3rd party software, you put your device and credentials at risk. Please be incredibly wary of what and who you interact with!

Be careful in what you install in your computers and smartphones, crypto users! Especially those people who HODL their coins in a hot wallet. The risk usually are not worth the rewards!
Plus HODL your coins in an offline cold-storage device, or buy a hardware wallet - a Trezor.

3rd party bot created to claim bonus code become popular lately which is not that surprising because bonus codes shared in social media (X, Telegram, etc) that can be claimed by players is like a trend these days.
Many people are attracted to use the bot because they want to claim the code easily and without any worry to be late but some of them do not realize that something bad might be inserted in the bot that may steal their data and even money on their devices.
Good to see that Shuffle informed about their finding and notify their players to do the best possible thing to avoid the worst possible thing.
There are even some paid auto claimer bots out there for other casino, although they are paid bots, it is always better to avoid it.
