Singapore Based Entrepreneur Loses Entire Crypto Portfolio After Downloading Fake Game.
Within 24 hours of doing this, every single software wallet he had connected to his Rabby and Phantom browser extensions was drained of all available funds, which amounted to $14,189 (100,000 yuan) in crypto that he had accumulated over eight years.
“I didn't even log into my wallet app. I had separate seed phrases. Nothing was saved digitally. So it had multiple vectors and also implanted a malicious scheduled process too. So I would advise even if the usual precautions are taken to actually remove and delete seeds from browser-based hot wallets when not in use. And if possible use the private key, not the seed, because then all the other derivative wallets won't be at risk." - Victim.
