5. Risk Alert

Recent security incidents show that hackers are increasingly using fake AI tools, counterfeit quantitative trading plugins, and malicious automated trading scripts to distribute malware. Some users have unknowingly downloaded fake on-chain monitoring tools, airdrop detection plugins, or AI trading assistants, resulting in browser wallet permissions and sensitive account data being compromised.

These malicious programs are often disguised as legitimate plugins or open-source utilities and can silently access browser cache, session data, and wallet information in the background. Some malware can even monitor copied wallet addresses and automatically replace them with attacker-controlled addresses, making detection extremely difficult.

Meanwhile, scammers are also exploiting the popularity of AI-related projects by distributing infected compressed files and malicious scripts under the names of “AI beta testing,” “automated arbitrage tools,” or “exclusive trading assistants” through online communities and social platforms.

Users are strongly advised not to download software, plugins, or scripts from unknown sources. Wallet-related operations should preferably be conducted on isolated devices or within separate browser environments. Before installation, always verify the authenticity of developers and official distribution channels, and regularly review device and wallet security status to reduce the risk of malware-based asset theft and better protect digital assets.
