Crypto Wallets Continue to be Drained in Elaborate Social Media Scam

Description

An ongoing social engineering campaign is targeting cryptocurrency users through fake startup companies impersonating AI, gaming, and Web3 firms. The scammers create elaborate facades using spoofed social media accounts and project documentation on platforms like Notion and GitHub. They contact victims offering to pay them to test software, which is actually malware designed to steal crypto wallet contents. The campaign uses both Windows and macOS malware, including information stealers like Atomic Stealer. The threat actors go to great lengths to appear legitimate, even creating fake conference photos and merchandise stores. Multiple fake company identities have been identified as part of this campaign.
