Users of MetaMask cryptocurrency wallet have been losing funds to a phishing scam that lured potential victims through Google search ads. Some users reported losses of tens of thousands of U.S. dollars after clicking on a fraudulent search ad being promoted as the MetaMask site. The scam is still active, with a new domain constantly being promoted via Google search. One user said they were robbed of nearly $30,000 after trying to install a fake MetaMask browser extension. A whois lookup on Domaintools shows that it was registered only yesterday.
