Ledger Discord Hack Sparks Security Concerns in Crypto

A recent security breach on the Ledger Discord server highlights the growing vulnerability of crypto platforms to cyber attacks. Hackers gained access to a moderator’s account, leveraging their permissions to deploy a malicious bot that posted fake links directing users to a phishing website mimicking an official Ledger verification page. The fraudulent website collected personal information from victims under the guise of needing them to verify their recovery phrase, prompting a security alert pop-up designed to appear legitimate. This attack underscores the importance of secure online practices in the crypto sector.
