Title: There is a Dust Attack - How to protect yourself Post by: SuperTA on August 10, 2019, 02:09:45 PM There is a LTC Dust Attack! You probably got a very tiny amount of ltc transferred to your ltc adress! This is called a dusting attack. This attack is used to de-anonymize users who trasfer those dust amounts to another adress. Attacker tracks those dust funds in your wallets. They will try to identify wallets with their users. If they identify user, they can use this for elaborate fishing attack. You can protect yourself from the attack simply by not moving those tiny dust amounts you received. In this case ltc.
