Slow Fog Founder: Hackers often pretend to be investors, journalists, or HR to induce meetings through software; when a computer is infected, funds should be transferred promptly and a comprehensive scan should be conducted

ChainCatcher news, Slow Mist founder Yu Xian released a response guide regarding computer infection issues and made additions to the Chinese version of the Black Book.

He pointed out that hacker organizations often use social engineering to induce users to install malware or run malicious code, such as pretending to be investors, journalists, or HR to lure users into meeting software, or disguising as Telegram and Cloudflare verification requests to get users to run malicious code.

Yu Xian suggested that infected users take the following measures promptly: transfer wallet funds, change important account passwords and check for unknown device logins, use reputable antivirus software to scan for viruses, and if necessary, reset the computer and scan backup files for viruses.

He emphasized that these attacks target not only Windows but also Mac and some Linux systems.
