DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM! YOUR CRYPTO & WALLETS ARE AT RISK!
We've received multiple incident reports across Social media of a highly deceptive new phishing scam targeting the trading community.
THE SCAM:
Malicious ads are circulating, falsely claiming it's TradingView's 15th Anniversary and offering 1 YEAR OF TRADINGVIEW PREMIUM FOR FREE!
โThese ads direct you to a convincing fake website where you're prompted to download and install a "desktop app" from a provided link.
โTHE DANGER:
If you click that link, download the "app," and install it on your PC or laptop, YOUR ENTIRE DIGITAL ASSETS ARE COMPROMISED!
โUsers who have fallen victim have reported:
โ๐ธ ALL CRYPTO WALLETS EMPTIED!โ๐ EXCHANGE ACCOUNTS COMPROMISED AND ZEROED OUT!โ๐ป COMPLETE SYSTEM TAKEOVER!
โThis is not a drill. This malware is sophisticated and designed to steal everything you have in your digital accounts.
โ๐ก๏ธ PROTECT YOURSELF โ IMMEDIATE ACTIONS REQUIRED:
โNEVER download software from unverified links or ads, no matter how legitimate they appear.
โONLY download TradingView (or any software) directly from their official website: tradingview.com
โVERIFY EVERYTHING: If an offer seems too good to be true (like a year of free premium), it almost always is. Check official announcements from TradingView directly.โENABLE 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication) on ALL your crypto exchanges and wallets. Use a hardware key if possible.
โBe Suspicious of any ad promising free premium services, especially on social media.
โVirtual Traders, stay vigilant! Your security is paramount.
