Emblem Vault CEO suffers Zoom conference phishing attack, resulting in $100,000 in crypto assets stolen

Odaily News Jake Gallen, CEO of NFT platform Emblem Vault, recently warned that the hacker group "ELUSIVE COMET" carried out attacks through Zoom video conferences, causing him to lose more than $100,000 worth of BTC and ETH. The attacker disguised himself as a YouTube celebrity "Tactical Investing" and used the remote control function enabled by default in Zoom to implant the "GOOPDATE" malware in the meeting and steal wallet credentials. Cybersecurity agency SEAL pointed out that the group has stolen millions of dollars and often disguised itself as venture capital firm Aureon Capital to carry out attacks. (Cointelegraph)
