How hackers are stealing cryptocurrency
The report "Spam and phishing", the company writes that recorded almost 60 thousand of user clicks on malicious links that they received in social networks or by email. Another common method of theft of funds and fraudulent ICO, the company said.
Constant growth in the number of attacks reflects the fact that more and more people use electronic and digital money. However, not all sufficiently knowledgeable about the risks than facilitate the task of the scams that try to steal sensitive information through phishing attacks.
Most of the attacks, analysts have recorded in South America and Asia. However, only Brazil had 15.51% of thefts of money and personal data of the users through a Scam. In second place Georgia (14.44 percent), followed by Kyrgyzstan (13.6 percent) and Russia (13.27%).
