  • Cryptocurrency scam sites are being targeted by other scammers to hijack their traffic and their possible earnings.
  • A recently detected threat actor, named Water Labbu, is manipulating the users that are drawn to these sites as a source of revenue, injecting a malicious script as a tool for interacting with the wallet that, depending on its funds, will be attacked.
  • This constitutes a double scam attack: Water Labbu steals the cryptocurrency from the targeted users and also uses the resources of the scam site.
