PSA: MetaMask plugin listed on the Google Chrome App store is a phishing scam!

in #busy8 years ago

Metamask is most popular and easiest to use plugin /wallet to use Ethereum. Currently it was swapped with phishing version - if you have installed in last 24h, change keys and move funds ASAP.

Google accidentally dropped the original Metamask this morning, and thieves are taking advantage of it.

They are back now but if you have installed it in last 24h you may lose all funds.

Often hackers forget of some tokens, if you are a victim check if they overlooked a few.

Shit! Resteemed...
The longer this goes on......... more honest money is lost.

True indeed! I can only imagine all the people that has been affected by this major mistake...smh

How was it even possible for google to remove the original to only allow this obvious fake to steal people funds...smh!

apparently google is taking down all the mining extensions from their store , due to the tags in metamask they took that down too

This is very condemnatory. Thanks to you.
