Dusting Attacks Exposed: How Crypto Scammers Peek Into Your Wallet
Ever found mysterious micro-transactions in your crypto wallet? That’s no glitch—it’s a dusting attack in action.
How it works: Hackers sprinkle ’dust’ (tiny amounts of crypto) across thousands of addresses. When you interact with these tokens, chain analysis reveals your entire transaction history—a privacy nightmare.
Why it matters: That 0.0001 BNB ’gift’ could be a Trojan horse. While Wall Street spends millions on surveillance, crypto scammers get the job done with pocket change.
Defense 101: Never interact with unsolicited tokens. Use privacy wallets or coin control features. And remember—in crypto, if something looks too good to be true, it’s probably a trap set by someone wearing a Lambo t-shirt.
