🚨 POST-CHRISTMAS ALERT: The "Required Update" Social Engineering Trap.

Did you get a new laptop or phone yesterday? Be extremely careful. One of the most effective social engineering tactics right now is the Fake Software Update.

How it works:
While browsing or looking for crypto tools, a pop-up or email claims your "Wallet extension" or "Security software" needs an urgent update to stay compatible with 2026 standards.

The Danger:
This "update" is actually a Keylogger or a Clipper.

Keylogger: Records every word you type (including passwords).

Clipper: Monitors your clipboard. When you copy a crypto address, it silently replaces it with the hacker's address.

How to stay safe:

Never click pop-ups: Only update software through official app stores or the "About" section of the app itself.

Verify the URL: Scammers buy ads that look like official sites (e.g., "https://www.google.com/search?q=Ledger-Support-Update.com").

Double-Check addresses: Always verify the first and last 5 digits of an address after pasting it.

Stay vigilant with your new gear!
