PANews reported on December 24 that according to Scam Sniffer monitoring, a victim lost $1 million due to fake Zoom malware, which was related to the us04-zoom[.]us threat actor. Currently, cases of private key theft malware are on the rise, and the source should be strictly verified and a security scan should be performed before installation.
Previously, X platform user Lsp (@lsp8940) posted a message saying, "My wallet was stolen and I lost 1 million Usd0++. The hacker disguised a Twitter account and pretended to be my friend through my Twitter interaction information. Then the other party said that he wanted to have a meeting with me to discuss the project development and sent me a zoom link. I have zoom on my computer, but there were always problems when I used zoom before, so I needed to reinstall it. So when the webpage prompted that I needed to reinstall it, I reinstalled it, and when I woke up, I found that it had been stolen."
