A new type of cryptocurrency theft method has emerged abroad: shared power banks implanted with malicious programs to steal private keys

2023-05-18 15:42:27

ChainCatcher news, TokenPocket CBO Michael tweeted, "Discovered a new type of coin theft method. In KTVs abroad, scam gangs quietly modified the shared power banks and implanted malicious programs. Guests sing and drink in the KTV for half a day, and their phones easily run out of battery, so they borrow a power bank. As a result, you think the power bank is charging your phone, but it's actually reading data from your phone and stealing the private keys from your wallet." (Source link)
