Malware is stealing over $600,000 from users... When users download malware and aren't using a hardware wallet—or if they store their seed phrase online in any way—scammers gain full access to the wallet and drain everything... I've compiled a list of over 10 different types of malware flooding your DMs with "job offers," "interviews," "IP/Licensing," and many other social engineering scams.
