FomoPeek Malicious iPhone App Can Steal Cryptocurrency Private Keys, Nearly $580,000 in USDT Stolen

Odaily reports, according to monitoring by Bitcoin News, security researchers have discovered that versions 1.1 and 1.2 of FomoPeek, distributed through the Apple App Store, contain an iOS exploit framework capable of escaping the app sandbox, enabling the extraction of keychain data, wallet files, and mnemonic phrases. SlowMist has linked the app to multiple theft incidents and traced nearly $580,000 in stolen USDT flowing into a primary address. Users who have installed either of the aforementioned versions should treat any keys accessible on that iPhone as compromised, generate new mnemonic phrases on a clean device, and immediately transfer their funds.
