Social Engineering Scam Asks for Bitcoin Wallet Recovery Codes

Malwarebytes spotted multiple Twitter accounts seeking to take advantage of people searching for a bitcoin wallet recovery tool. Attackers targeted Trust Wallet, an app that enables users to send, receive and store bitcoin, as well as other cryptocurrencies. The attackers targeted real customer support threads on Twitter to trick users into clicking on a link. As part of the social engineering, another attack profile claimed the fake customer support team solved their problem. But that link didnt direct anyone to customer support. Instead, it sent them to a phishing landing page that asked them to describe their issue.”]
