Stealing $ 140,000 of Ethruim in the process of penetrating a wallet!

There have been reports that a large-scale attack has occurred on the MyEtherWallet portfolio, in which more than 200 etheriums have been stolen, with a price of nearly $ 140,000.

According to the "MyEtherWallet" page on Twitter, a number of DNS service companies have been attacked that have started redirecting users to Myetherwallet.com to a phishing site. From these fake sites, user data has been extracted and some of the detected etherium has been stolen.

This is a big thing again. This hacking happened as a result of a single vulnerability, and it is supposed to be essentially something that should not happen definitively. However, hackers found some other weaknesses that allowed them access to a large system. When looking at things from a broader perspective, 200 tablets of etherium do not constitute a huge amount of money, however, the risk to data and privacy here is great. Security is very important, and once again users are shocked by a company that should have done more to protect them.

According to "BTCManager":

"A hacked address has been detected and is currently marked on EtherScan Fake_phishing89 as being involved in MEW DNS penetration. The address has so far handled 180 transactions and stole 215 Ethers, now valued at $ 150,000. According to a Reddit publication, there are signs that the break-in may be due to a facility in Russia "

You can protect yourself from such breakthroughs by using purses separated from the Internet as an alternate storage medium for your assets as at least one way, assuming that malicious intent can not compromise your assets here. If you lose your wallet then you will be unlucky.
