Really, I did a great job informing the members about this malicious ComboJack program that steals cryptocurrencies and to warn members against using these programs, we must be careful and do not download any program on our devices before knowing its source and that this program is known

[BrolySSJ 7899]

Thank you for this information about this malware. I will definitely take more precautions going forward when it comes to copying and pasting my wallet address. This is honestly the main reason why i am so skeptical about the sites that i visit now because there is an increasing number of cyber attacks through malware. In fact i was hacked this year and all my funds in crypto were stolen and since then i have been very careful. So thank you for the heads up.

This is one of the widespread phishing and hacking methods. The program is often downloaded to Windows via a suspicious link, so we must beware of the messages we receive via e-mail.

The fraudsters have created many of these applications that are intended to steal and to change the addresses of the governor, and I was exposed to this matter, but it was by adding to the browser, but after I was able to discover it, I cleared the browser, everyone should pay attention to this matter as much as possible.

ComboJack software designed for electronic theft, as it targets coins and digital wallets that modify the contents of memory, and replaces addresses in them with other addresses belonging to the authorities that developed them, enabling them to steal digital currencies and send them to their portfolio.

This method of theft depends on the victims' uncertainty of the address of the digital wallet to which the money is sent.

Therefore, you should always verify the address after pasting it in the place designated for the wallet address, preferably writing it manually.

 

 

Every time we face some new malware in the internet. Hackers invent new viruses to stole others data. Also some comps create virus to improve their business.

Yes this malware software can steal your cryptocurrencies by changing the data in your clipboard. We can avoid it by being careful of unexpected emails and strange attachments. Be careful from these things.

A lot of people lost their money due to this virus. Also, the shortage of this amount came to my inspection of the transmission wallet, and also the reception manually before I made any transfer of the money.

Named ComboJack, this malware is similar to Evrial and CryptoShuffler. The only difference between them is that ComboJack “supports " many cryptocurrencies, not just Bitcoin.

According to Palo Alto Networks, the ComboJack program is able to detect when a user copies cryptocurrency addresses for Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum and Monero, as well as for other digital payment systems such as Qiwi, Yandex Money and WebMoney (payments in US dollars and rubles).

Unfortunately, many people fall victim to such software and reach their devices because of their random browsing and without updating the protection programs for their devices Also, there are programs that steal passwords, not just change the address, or lead to fake or similar sites to the sites we usually use.
