ā ļø Security Alert: North Korean Hackers Using Fake Zoom Calls for Scams š”ļøš»
Security Alliance warns about daily scams by North Korean hackers.
These scams force victims to download malware through fake Zoom meetings, which steals passwords and private keys.
According to security researcher Taylor Monahan, assets worth over $300 million have been stolen so far.
The scam starts with a Telegram message, often from someone familiar, followed by a Zoom call invitation. Pretending to have an audio issue during the call, hackers send a 'patch file'. As soon as the file is opened, malware enters the device, and they end the call with a promise to reschedule.
This new tactic from North Korean hackers is very dangerous, so caution is very important.
