October 30 - According to multiple DeFi investors, they have received fraudulent emails with PDF files. Unfortunately, someone has already opened the attachment. Yesterday (October 29, 2021), Twitter user @cryptofan777 disclosed that he received an email from the address of Sisyphus, a DeFi investor pretending to be a well-known NFT product, Pebble DAO. According to the subject of the email, it contains a simple protocol for a future token SAFT from the Parallel DAO project. At the same time, the email has no textual content and no signature. The recipient admitted to opening the PDF file, "which seems to be the problem." Because this appears to be a dangerous form of malware. At least three blockchain-focused venture capital giants are known to have been targeted by this attack, with the same emails sent to Sino Global Capital, Sneaky Ventures and County Capital. and the real Sisyphus immediately declared that the emails were not sent by itself and warned users who received such emails not to open the emails or click on any links.
