Title: Mac cryptocurrency trading application rebranded, bundled with malware Post by: cryptomaniac_xxx on July 16, 2020, 12:39:18 PM It was reported by ESET that a fake crypto currency trading website has rebranded itself and evolved. It was called Kattana trading apps discovered last September 2019 (https://blog.trendmicro.com/trendlabs-security-intelligence/mac-malware-that-spoofs-trading-app-steals-user-information-uploads-it-to-website/).
So be careful out there specially for Mac users (like me :( ). https://i.imgur.com/qkZsUau.png https://www.welivesecurity.com/2020/07/16/mac-cryptocurrency-trading-application-rebranded-bundled-malware/ I also found similar fake crypto trading as well: Really hard to distinguished them visually. Code: Fake site: http://lmiwallet.com/#

Personally, I've never heard of Kattana before, but I see that their app is also available for Windows users - so be careful and watch what you download from the Internet.
As for LumiWallet, I reported the phishing page to GoogleSafeBrowsing, which I would recommend to others - and then we can hope that Google will respond as soon as possible.

The only difference is the domain name. Immediately reporting phishing wallet will be better so that no one is exposed to the scammer trap. this will be very detrimental.
To be more secure, to download the original wallet can directly visit the official wallet website and there will be a link to get a secure official wallet.

Initially hackers are only targeting Window base operating system because it is easy for them to exploit their system. But lately, there's a growing list of malwares popping up that focus on IOS. Although it might posed a challenge for them to create such malwares, it's just a matter of time before IOS users became their next victims.To be more secure, to download the original wallet can directly visit the official wallet website and there will be a link to get a secure official wallet.

Applications that contain malware that was developed specifically for iOS devices are classified as still rare, all of which are focused on windows that are easier to attack. But all returned to its users. How to keep the device safe is very important. |
