Cryptocurrency theft through a program that victims need to run to allegedly profit from a bug in crypto exchange
A cryptocurrency theft scam distributed on platforms like Pastebin uses social engineering to trick victims into running malicious JavaScript code disguised as a "crypto exchange profit exploit,". The malware manipulates the displayed web page content to show fake 37% profits while redirecting victims' cryptocurrency to attackers' wallets.
Never trust "secret profit methods" or anyone claiming to share money-making exploits - if someone really found a way to make 37% profit, they'd use it themselves, not share it. Never run unknown JavaScript code or programs from random sources, especially ones promising easy profits.
