Telegram Safeguard scam extends to Mac users, please do not click on unknown links
ChainCatcher message, user @0xDiyaaa shared a security incident related to the Telegram Safeguard scam, reminding everyone to raise security awareness as the year-end approaches. The user clicked on a TG link disguised as a validator bot in the comments section of a social platform, which executed a malicious command, putting their assets at risk. Fortunately, they had a handwritten mnemonic phrase backed up in advance, allowing them to transfer their assets in time and wipe their computer, avoiding greater losses.In addition, SlowMist founder Yu Xian also pointed out that this scam has expanded to Mac users. When users see specific instructions in Telegram, their clipboard may have been compromised by malicious code, and if they continue to follow the instructions, they will face serious security consequences.Try to avoid clicking on unknown links, especially TG links in the comments section of social platforms, and ensure that your wallet mnemonic phrase is backed up to respond quickly to emergencies.
