Stepn impersonators stealing users’ seed phrases, warn security experts
Peckshield, a prominent blockchain security firm, has today exposed that there are numerous phishing websites for the Web3 lifestyle app Stepn. Hackers insert a forged MetaMask browser plugin through which they can steal seed phrases from unsuspecting Stepn users, according to Peckshield.
When these cybercriminals obtain the seed phrase, they gain complete control over the Stepn user’s dashboard, where they may connect their stolen wallets to their own or “claim” a giveaway as per Peckshield.
