Like taking pictures ‘phish’ in a barrel
Regardless of the success of the TON ecosystem, there has been a rise in phishing attacks on the blockchain, as described by SlowMist founder Yu Xian.
On June 24, Xian argued that the Telegram ecosystem was “too free,” with phishing hyperlinks unfold via the platform’s message teams, airdrops and different “misleading strategies.”
Though the Telegram messenger usually requires cellphone numbers to be tied to an account, Xian defined that phishing dangers have been greater for customers with nameless numbers.
Customers of this nature don’t have accounts linked to SIM playing cards, and as such, their accounts might be misplaced if they’re phished by dangerous actors on the platform.
