In a recent tweet, Binance CEO Changpeng CZ revealed that a sophisticated phishing campaign targeting liquidity providers (LPs) of the Uniswap v3 protocol has resulted in attackers making off with at least $4.7 million worth of Ether (ETH). However, the community is reporting the losses could be even greater. This is yet another reminder of the importance of being vigilant when it comes to cryptocurrency trading and managing your digital assets.

It is a sad reality that the crypto space is probably the worst community in terms of shilling and scamming. It seems like there are whole companies that are specialized in scamming crypto investors or crypto newbies in special. You just need to post a question in any of the official telegram channels of a crypto project and withing a minutes you get like 5 messages of different people that want to help you. Of course those guys are scammers that want your private key and your money. Most of us are already aware of such activity and therefore that is not really a threat anymore but attacks like the one you mentioned still seems to have quite a success which is a shame.

Again?

This happens at most times and these hackers or the "bad guys" will keep doing what they've been living off when they see something to exploit.

They always see new tactics and reinvention with how they trick innocent users that don't update much of what they do. Yeah, it's important to be updated at most times.
With cryptocurrency usage users need to be more cautious than using the traditional system. With time we could see more and more forms of scam approach through which hackers breach into the wallets and take control over the funds. Initially it started with phising websites and now we don't know in what way they're attacking. So, in a each and everytime we use cryptocurrency we need to be very careful handling it.
Yeah.

They create a new style of scamming that no one has ever known but if you're going to analyze it, you'll have that clue and idea that they're scamming and they're not genuine.

It's for the sake of everyone that we need to take care of ourselves and our funds so that these bad actors won't at least get what they want to happen, and that is to victimize as much as they can.

While we're here, we also give warning and tip to the others and hopefully all of them listens.

It is nearly impossible to control such incidents but awareness, knowledge and alertness can really save us from such happenings.

In addition to this important awareness of phishing websites, it is important to take note of the growing fake tokens being distributed of which if you are not careful, you will think it was an airdrop you performed sometime and you may want to interact with the token/token website. Scammers are making tokens to defraud people of their hard earned money (https://research.checkpoint.com/2022/scammers-are-creating-new-fraudulent-crypto-tokens-and-misconfiguring-smart-contracts-to-steal-funds/). Let us be aware of these developments in the crypto space.
