Scammers Abound - Latest
Today I got an email from this company and immediately checked the "from" address.
I like to play along to debug their fake stuff and deconstruct the email and sites.
Let's look at "cheffas.com", shall we?
Total Scam.
Wow, another site setup just for scamming. The only thing they did was setup the server to handle outgoing emails for this scam.
Well let's go back to the email and see how good the scam looks - I wanted to see just how close they can get to the real site with their fake phishing email and site.
It opens to https://openseamarket.com that is pretending to be https://opensea.io, the real trading place for NFT and other alt-currency products.
Within about ten seconds, you get this popup and all it will do is use your credentials and literally STEAL anything that is in any of your real wallets for alt-coins.
The scary part is that if you do get taken by the site, when you click the "Connect Wallet", this site is using a method of programming that will capture the data you put in on the REAL wallet, copy it back to their servers and your stuff is GONE. Period.
How? When you click the circle to select the wallet and click connect, it opens the REAL wallet login window, which is silently capturing what you enter into the real site to pass it to the hackers.
I also clicked the "login", to see if I get an error page or some type of actual login.
Also fake and pointing just a registered site, that has zero content.
While it looks real to most people, I was able tell it's a phishing site. I also took a few and looked up the actual domain registration and it was registered on 3/6/24. Not exactly a trustworthy site.
The real site looks like this and there is no pop-up requesting that I put in my wallet information.
If you are not sure about an email or it's authenticity, you can forward it to me and I can help prevent the financial disasters that loom when these scammers get a hold of an email list and start sending out phishing emails.
