Inferno Drainer Scammer Network: New Massive Attack Against Crypto Users

The crypto community faces an increasing threat with the activation of the phishing network known as Inferno Drainer. SlowMist security experts have warned about a coordinated campaign targeting cryptocurrency wallets directly, using fraudulent addresses linked to dozens of potential victims.

Sophisticated Identity Theft Methods

The Inferno Drainer strategy combines social engineering techniques with precise technical attacks. The group has managed to compromise official accounts on major social networks, from which they spread malicious links directed to specialized phishing sites. These fake portals use cleverly modified domains — such as replacing the letter ‘i’ with the letter ‘l’ — to evade visual detection by unsuspecting users.

The Real Risk: How This Criminal Network Operates

According to analysis by SlowMist investigators, Inferno Drainer operates by coordinating multiple attack vectors simultaneously. Victims receive suspicious links through compromised channels, which when accessed lead them to fake interfaces that replicate legitimate platforms. Once inside, users are tricked into revealing credentials or authorizing unauthorized transactions.

Urgent Security Recommendations

Crypto users should implement immediate defensive measures: thoroughly verify URLs before accessing (paying attention to details such as altered characters), enable multi-factor authentication on all their accounts, and distrust links shared even from seemingly official sources. Constant vigilance over digital asset movements is essential in this context of sophisticated threats.
