Another Trezor Scam Attempt!

[uchegod-21]

Word of warning to everyone who is using Trezor devices, watch out for new wave of scam attempts!
I just received email that I should update my Trezor and ''enhance my security with secure ease''.
Luckily I learned my lesson long timr ago and I don't click any links, even if they are legit, before I check them.

The thing is if you verify the email you will discover that that message is not from Trezor's official email also we need to be constantly on the lookout for phishing emails to I don't reply to emails if I don't request for it, to be at the safer side, a lot of time, many that fall for this kind of scam did not do their due diligence checks and their lack the knowledge to spot the red flags just like you did.


Thank you for bringing this up here!

The only way this scam can maybe be effective is if these scammers have the right email address of all people that actually own a trezor device, if I am sent this mail now I will just laugh it out because i never own any trezor device.

I saw similar trick but with Ledger hardware wallet and I don't own one either lol, this is the fastest way that these scammers are shooting themselves in the legs, they form email address and sent the messages out or maybe they have email filters but the fact remains, there is no way to know how really owns a Trezor device.

All this drama is about having common sense, to update the firmware of any hardware devices this days it has to be done via the official website, teams will never send you any clickable link through email.

...and you think that these scammers don't also send these messages to those who actually own Trezor devices? Their major victims are these guys who own Trezor devices because everything seems so real, only the observant people will be able to spot even the most insignificant differences that shows that such emails are not  genuine. Scammers are smart these days, they have their ways of getting access to people's data; emails ain't one difficult thing they can't access.

I see no reason why anyone should fall for these kind of scam when they clearly do not own a Trezor device. That is pure stupidity.

Exactly. The scammers can send this phishing mail to a large userbase consisting of Trezor as well as non-trezor users.
The ones who don't own a trezor device will obviously not fall for this mail and will either delete it or report it.
On the other hand, those who are indeed trezor users might skip a beat for a second. If they are not careful about the mail they might just fall for it.
This is why we should be very careful when we click on any links we see on our mails. It's better to just hover over any link and be sure of the link we are clicking on.
