KryptoCibule: A New Malware Threat

[SuperCrypto 7193]

The big problem is that some malicious programs can hide themselves from Android users to look like Google updates, such as a malicious program called BlackRock, where the system grants it access to the phone's privacy penetration feature.

@Shaza Ahmad Once hackers detects your real IP, they fragments your network to route your data according to their needs. It is better to avoid using random Torrent clients 😉 !

Yes, they are often responsible to create gold-cache. Android OS has been facing so many obstacles since the first day of its launch.

@Jromz Yes, they are smart enough to mask the virus inside any sort of files including animated gifs, videos and Torrent files. It will be smart decisions to avoid downloading files from the torrent sites😉.

It is impressive to see how they manage to steal and at the same time undermine digital assets, so that in case they do not have Cryptos, then their computer mine in the background, I suppose this will also affect phones.

 

Since both programs, (Utorrent and BitTorrent) have a mobile platform, coincidentally I was downloading a game that way, but with this I prefer to gather the money and buy it, thanks for the information

Torrent is a big site and through this site so many peoples will download the movies, software and also the tutorials but now i read your all given info and this is not good because peoples are not secure now from the hackers which those use the torrent.

Virus are downloaded along with the Torrent files specially from Software but you might keep it in your mind, hackers can hide virus even in animated Gif files.It is advised to avoid random Torrent sites or use paid antivirus software to be safe from hackers.

users of cryptocurrencies if you download them to computers and steal all, responsible to mine currencies according to the interests of malware operators

[Adam adam 276]

This is extremely dangerous. You must verify the source of the program that you download on your computer.

[Razan alikac 1899]

Downloading torrents may be dangerous and expose ourselves to viruses, piracy or malicious programs, but protecting ourselves is not difficult, and vpn programs can be downloaded and work to hide your IP address and encrypt your data and your activity remains anonymous

[VijithaVarghese 1994]

Alright, avoiding to use Torrent sites or clients might help us a lot to be safe from the scammers. 

[yato987 2811]

this is really a serious problem and should be careful so we don't end losing our money , i see one of the best solutions is never to save anything related to crypto on our  devises , even passwords or anything related to it , it may be harder for us to keep logging in several times every day but this is still better than losing our balance

[Cryptomint 433]

Be aware from these kind of malwares. And also be careful from the fraudulent activities. They are just for grabbing money in the market.

Experts in the similar fields, do not advise us to store passwords even on browser. The best thing to save password is to make the offline hardcopy backup and put them at the safest place. You might use your login credentials on demand basis from the hardcopy backup. Additionally, antivirus or malware fighter software are our life savers. We should regularly update the antivirus software.

First of all thank you so much, I think you said very well Just like the viruses keeps on doing it, but you should just work But you keep working and you have to trust One has to take risk to do any work But I hope that people who know more about it will tell there.

Are you downloading torrent files? Wait!
I have been following the reports from the internet security company ESET. Recently, researchers have found a new malware KryptoCibule which is designed to attack cryptocurrency enthusiasts by cyber-criminals. You can check the detail report from ESET here. This malware has been found in pirated torrent files with multitasking features to steal crypto holder's multi-currency. You know nowadays, you can find even the premium software on the torrent sites for free but if you download them, you are exposing yourself to a risk to lose everything from your computer.

Once this malware finds a way to a victim's computer it attacks in three ways

• First, it installs a miner to mine cryptocurrency in a behalf of malware operators(Cryptojacking)
• Then, it steals all the crypto-related data and hence wipes out the funds from the victim's computer
• Eventually, the malware replaces the victim's wallet address to hijack all the incoming transactions

 Thank you so much dear for this kind information it is very very helpful for me and for also other people because people are losing their money by believing on such things and some people are also downloading Sach apps that are requiring access to their mobile and they are accepting their requirements and like this that are also becoming a reason for hacking their mobiles buy hackers.

I think that fraud methods are developing day after day, so we always advise all members to pay much attention to the issue of security and not to download suspicious files, and it is better not to save cryptocurrencies in hot wallets so that you do not lose your coins in any fraud.

Every day new type of malware are producing. Eventually, the malware replaces the victims wallet address to hijack all the incoming transactions.

Initially, this virus won't be detected when you browse the Torrent sites and download files from there but later, once virus make attack on your PC, even your antivirus software gets flopped to detect it on your PC but it keeps either mining cryptocurrencies by utilizing the resources of your PC or stealing the important data from your PC. 

You should regularly check the performance of your PC and activities of some applications. If battery is draining very fast and producing heats, you should there is not something okay.

Getting started crypto trading on other platforms and getting attacked from the viruses are utterly the two different things. At least take the precautions off this topic and avoid using the malicious websites even there is an installed antivirus software on your PC. Be careful please. You need to understand, attackers will be searching for the weakest part to make attack.

My friend, I have never been exposed to such harmful sites before and I am not downloading any of the unnecessary programs in order to avoid viruses that threaten my programs and my phone as some members resort to free participation in these sites that have no assets and once they participate they have lost a lot and I advise everyone to download The most powerful anti-virus software by avoiding these harmful programs to avoid losing our devices

Caring your browser? How you know virus is already infected via your browsing applications? Most of such viruses attacks your PC through the indirect loopholes and you should be careful on that by installing the antivirus software. The best advise can be, do not go into the torrent sites no matter you think they are safer and reliable.
