In the past year, the crypto company DWF Labs has made a name for itself with investments that have led to significant increases in altcoins. There are various discussions about the company, and we have seen experts who say that there is a new potential risk resembling the structure of 3AC or Alameda. We have discussed these debates at length. However, today’s topic is quite different.
DWF Labs and Crypto Scam Warning
Crypto markets attract a high interest from scammers, and their motivation is clear when we look at the loot they steal. Therefore, they are constantly developing new methods to hunt down investors. We have often seen scenarios where employees of popular companies, especially in human resources, introduce themselves to get close to the victims.
We have experienced incidents where the Lazarus group impersonated human resources employees of well-known companies in their targeted operations. A few hours ago, DWF Labs issued a warning through their official X account, stating the following;
“We want to alert our community to scammers impersonating our team members or falsely claiming to work with us.
These scammers try to deceive individuals and obtain personal information or funds.
You can always verify the official members of DWF Labs on the Verify page of our website. Stay safe and thank you for your continued support.”
Methods of Crypto Scammers
Targeted attacks are expected to intensify in the coming months, and investors need to be cautious. From wallet security to potential social engineering attacks, we have shared advice on COINTURK on how to take precautions. Targeted attacks, however, are a much more complex method.
This method, targeting investors with certain capital, led to the hacking of the Ronin bridge and a loss of over 600 million dollars. The attack by the Lazarus group went down in history as one of the biggest crypto hack attacks. It was also one of the largest exploitations using social engineering.
What investors need to do is quite simple. You should always be skeptical of virtual characters trying to approach you, even in the least suspicious situations. Those who come to you with exciting offers through Telegram, Discord, or other channels, trying to entice you, are often hunters these days.
