Emergency Security warning: Multiple sites including CoinGecko seem to be compromised. Be careful while making any txns
1 min read
Looks like many sites have been hit with a front end attack. Some like Spirit Swap are reporting the attacker managed to change swap address by hacking into AWS..
Security Alert: If you are on the CoinGecko website and you are being prompted by your Metamask to connect to this site, this is a SCAM. Don’t connect it. We are investigating the root cause of this issue.
Incomplete list of services that seem compromised as of now: Etherscan, Curve Finance, Coin Gecko, Spirit Swap. Many more could be too, till the team verifies or confirms them
Seems to be a front end hack where some kind of Metamask pop up keeps appearing when visiting these sites.
Users on Etherscan have also reported the same thing.
Persistent connection dialog boxes that dont seem to go away.
