Trezor Sounds Alarm: Contact Form Exploit Fuels Sophisticated Phishing Attack
Hardware wallet giant Trezor just dropped a security bombshell—and it's a wake-up call for crypto holders. Hackers weaponized their contact form, turning a customer service portal into a phishing free-for-all.
How it went down:
The exploit bypassed standard safeguards, letting attackers impersonate Trezor support. Victims received legit-looking emails—classic 'urgent security update' nonsense—with malicious links. One click, and boom: seed phrases harvested like ripe BTC.
Cold wallets aren't bulletproof:
Even air-gapped storage can't protect against human error. This breach proves attackers are targeting the weakest link (as usual): the space between chair and keyboard.
Meanwhile in TradFi land...
Banks lose $10B annually to fraud but still lecture crypto about 'security.' Glass houses, much?
Bottom line: If your Trezor support email smells fishy, it's probably phishy. Double-check URLs, enable 2FA everywhere, and remember—not your keys, not your coins (but also not your problem if you get rekt by a fake customer service rep).
