According to BlockBeats, the nonprofit organization Security Alliance has issued a warning about daily scams orchestrated by North Korean hackers. These scams involve fake Zoom meetings designed to trick victims into downloading malware, which then steals sensitive information such as passwords and private keys. Security researcher Taylor Monahan has highlighted that this tactic has resulted in the theft of over $300 million in assets. The scam typically begins with a message from a Telegram account, often belonging to someone the victim knows, which lowers their guard. The conversation then naturally transitions to an invitation to 'catch up over Zoom.' Once the fake Zoom call begins, the hackers pretend to encounter audio issues and send a supposed 'patch file.' When the victim opens this file, their device is infected with malware. The hackers then end the fake call with a promise to reschedule, leaving the victim unaware of the breach.
