Beware of the Malicious Transactions on TRON

I have seen such transactions of small amounts.

This transaction is suspected to be an attack from an account with the same ending characters as that of the user's account. Please be cautious of such scams.

What are these?

When you send assets from A to B, attackers may generate a similar address, C, which closely resembles B (in prefix and/or suffix), and then send you a small amount of assets.

The Steem2TRX sent a swap to address B.

And the transaction was monitored by attackers, who then decided to send a small transaction from a wallet C that looks similar to B.

Why?

If you don’t verify the source, you may mistakenly think C is the same as B and transfer the funds to C instead of B.

TLDR;

Ignore those transactions and always verify the destination wallet addresses when sending funds. Some malware monitors your clipboard and changes copied wallet addresses to the attackers’ wallets, causing you to send assets to the wrong address without realizing it!

Stay alert, stay safe.
