#mailchimp phishing

The cryptocurrency hardware wallet company, Trezor, has confirmed reports that some users were targeted by a phishing attack this weekend. In a tweet on Sunday, a warning was issued by Trezor stating that the phishing campaign targeted Mailchimp’s newsletter database and that their service had been compromised. Trezor confirmed that a phishing campaign targeting Trezor wallet owners via their registered email accounts was reported by a number of users. The phishing email (copy found below) appears to direct users to download a Trezor Suite lookalike app, that will prompt you to connect your Trezor wallet and enter your seed phrase. As well, it is noted that Decentraland had fallen victim as well to the same phishing attack as user's email addresses were acquired due to a MailChimp data breach. https://twitter.com/Trezor/status/1510558773739503617 https://twitter.com/Trezor/status/1510602645572050949 To read the full details on the phishing attack and how to handle it yourself if you have fallen victime to it, you may read Trezor's full blog post here.
