Inferno Drainer Returns 80% of Stolen Funds to Victims of Phishing Attack
Inferno Drainer, a cryptocurrency phishing site generator that stole $6.91 million, has returned 1445 ETH, which is 80% of the stolen funds, to the victims. It is likely that they kept 362 ETH, or 20%, as a reward. This is the 26th phishing attack that Inferno Drainer has been involved in, and it is the first time that they have returned any of the stolen funds. The return of the funds is a positive step, but it is important to remember that phishing attacks are still a major threat to the cryptocurrency community. It is important to be aware of the risks and to take steps to protect yourself from being scammed. Here are some tips to help you avoid phishing attacks: Never click on links in emails or text messages that you don't recognize. Be wary of emails or text messages that claim to be from legitimate companies but contain misspellings or grammatical errors. Never share your personal information, such as your password or credit card number, with someone you don't know. If you're unsure whether or not an email or text message is legitimate, contact the company directly.
