- Trezor’s support system exploited in phishing attack.
- Users urged to enhance security measures.
- Ongoing risk highlights importance of vigilance.
Trezor’s user support system faced a phishing attack that delivered fraudulent emails. Attackers leveraged the system, bypassing direct personal involvement from company leaders.
This attack targeted users of Trezor hardware wallets including holders of BTC and ETH. Trezor leaders, Marek Palatinus and Pavol Rusnák, have not issued direct statements.
The phishing primarily affects cryptocurrency users, posing security risks to those holding digital assets. Earlier attacks on Trezor support demonstrate a trend of similar exploits.
The financial impact appears limited, with no reported direct losses. Users are reminded phishing attempts don’t directly result in funding changes, but pose a threat to digital security.
Attacks on service systems expose vulnerabilities within crypto security infrastructures. Trezor urges users to report suspicious activity and adopt enhanced security measures.
Previous incidents in 2022 and 2023 show a pattern of targeted phishing campaigns. Users are encouraged to use hardware wallets and two-factor authentication for stronger protection.
“We urge our users to remain vigilant against phishing attempts and to utilize strong security measures.” – Marek Palatinus, CEO, Trezor
