Title: [SCAM] Ledger Nano S - Fake Google Chrome Extension Post by: witcher_sense on July 24, 2020, 04:08:08 PM What happened: Fake/malicious browser extension
ANN: not listed here yet Link to fake extension (please do not install, report it instead): Code: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chrome-device-manager/nkhfbcmmnjlcgilclmoepcknfphaceme Yet another fake Ledger Nano S extension has recently appeared on Google Store and, more importantly, in google ads, which is why browsing internet without uBlock is not recommended anymore: you may fall victim to fake wallet apps and lose your cryptocurrency. No hardware wallet will help, because fake apps ask for your seed phrase to "restore" your wallet. Some screenshots: https://i.gyazo.com/44e9d098420fd73024b302a0969889c3.png https://i.gyazo.com/83ca965ea138acc2ce4d8fe3751842b3.png https://i.gyazo.com/f992ff09cb726687a3eac1171e5a2160.png https://i.gyazo.com/3083600882241dfc5a9066e8cd6ad60c.png Title: Re: [SCAM] Ledger Nano S - Fake Google Chrome Extension Post by: lovesmayfamilis on July 25, 2020, 07:55:29 AM Link to fake extension (please do not install, report it instead): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chrome-device-manager/nkhfbcmmnjlcgilclmoepcknfphaceme http://archive.is/LN5gX Is your witcher_sense link to a completely different extension, or am I missing something? This is the extension https://i.ibb.co/9GDfPVN/2020-07-25-13-05.png (https://ibb.co/b70yt2P) Fortunately, Google Store responded very quickly and this extension is no longer there today. Search results today with a blank page. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ledger-live/idnelecdpebmbpnmambnpcjogingdfco https://i.ibb.co/x57gW7g/image.png (https://ibb.co/7y1pP1p) But since March, as it was discovered by a specialist MyCrypto. https://twitter.com/sniko_/status/1235345036382003206 It consisted of over 120 installations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edited. It looks like they are two different extensions. Scamers cannot calm down and after they are caught, they create something new. :o |
