ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, as the Chinese AI company DeepSeek gains popularity, malicious "DeepSeek" crypto tokens have surged in the past 24 hours.

According to data from security firm BlockAid, as of January 27, at least 75 related scam tokens have been created, a threefold increase from the previous day. This mirrors the spike in counterfeit tokens following U.S. President Trump's release of a meme coin on January 18.

According to BlockAid research analyst Oz Tamir, scammers have created a DApp that mimics the DeepSeek website, which includes a "connect wallet" button that, when clicked, could steal users' wallet funds.
