Good evening girls and guys.

Ok there is a new account which is: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=345637


He sent to many - including me - a private invitation message to download his " new " RPG game and try it, note that that account had been registred today 19th of June.





I would like to warn everyone from trying this RPG game cause it is mostly nothing but a code used to hack into accounts to steal users money from different trading sites, it had happened before when the same RPG game had been sent to many users and they lost their money which had been sold and transferred by a hacker.


Don't forget to activate the 2FA at any of your trading sites and keep your self safe.



Good luck..

I received that PM too, yesterday.

I did report it but obviously the mods havent punished (> banned) him.

Dont even think about opening URLs from strangers, and especially don't download stuff!

You are welcome guys, and I hope the noobs will learn.

Unfortunately many had fallen into this trap before, you know sometimes the money's smell can make many including some professionals become blinds.



Lol wtf. His game is a trojans' hive  Grin

Be aware that more users than the stated " vienisu" are sending these messages.

Yesterday I received it from a different user, which was "brand new" also. I deleted the message so I dont exactly remember his name anymore. It was something like "giengaru". I can't find him anymore (hopely banned).

I don't trust much people on the internet, and I think that's what saved me yesterday Wink. I don't even open such links. I've had such PM's earlier, someone who wanted me to check whether his miner wasn't working. He was sending me some "screenshots". When I opened the URL on an old mobile Phone it appears that it was a .zip file with some .exe programs in it..  Fail xD.

Yeah, as soon as I got that PM I thought to myself "How many idiots are going to fall for this?"

I wouldn't be surprised if we see more of this sort of thing in the future.

Does anyone know of any virus or trojan that can actually affect a Linux box? I can't say I have heard of any but surely there must be something?

I remember reading about this one

http://www.pcworld.com/article/2081600/new-ddos-malware-targets-linux-and-windows-systems.html

And I would have to assume there are a shit ton more out there we just don't hear about.

[edit] lol posted too soon

http://arstechnica.com/security/2014/01/java-based-malware-driving-ddos-botnet-infects-windows-mac-linux-devices/

this is exactly of what I had in the back of my mind. Cross platform attacks must exist in the wild... why wouldn't you add em just to ensure massive propagation of your payload?
