Dear investors:
Please be vigilant and do not click on any suspicious links from unofficial channels. For Eggbit related products, please visit www.eggbit.com to download.
1. What is phishing
Phishing attacks are criminal fraud processes that disguise themselves as others to obtain personal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, funds and ID cards. These communications claim to be from officials, operations, customer service or network administrators to deceive victims into believing them.
2. Phishing transmission channels
1) Through viruses. Criminals copy a website that is exactly the same as Eggbit, and then use some computer virus programs, junk software, etc. to send fake website addresses to investors' computers, or put them on search websites to trick investors into logging in, in order to steal user account passwords, transaction information or funds, etc.
2) Through mobile phone text messages. Criminals use mobile phone text messages to impersonate Eggbit officials to send fraudulent text messages to users, claiming that they have won a prize or their accounts have been stolen by others, etc., and require investors to log in to the website specified in the text message as soon as possible for identity verification. The website is a fake website established by criminals to obtain user information. If users log in to the website and operate, the user's account, password and other information will be known by criminals.
3) Establish a fake website. Criminals first establish a fake website, and then publish false activity information on the social platform website. The activity often paints a big pie for users. When users log in to the fake website, the account and password information will be known by criminals.
4) Impersonating official emails. Criminals send a large number of fraudulent emails to lure users to log in to fake websites. These emails are mostly for various reasons such as winning a prize and system upgrades. Recipients are required to click on the link address on the email and log in to an interface similar to the Eggbit website. Once investors enter their account password and other information in this designated login interface, this information will be stolen.
5) Forward phishing website links through social networks to lure users to log in to fake websites.
3. Anti-phishing
Use a relatively safe Chrome browser and upgrade it to the latest version;
Note: Chrome is a product of Google and is recognized to be highly secure. The reason for upgrading to the latest version is that lower versions have many vulnerabilities, such as the "Punycode phishing attack" link: https://blog.csdn.net/qq_27446553/article/details/70255763
Do not install browser plug-ins at will;
Note: Browser plug-ins have high permissions and there is a risk of account theft, such as the "User-Agent Switcher backdoor incident under Chrome".
Do not open links from unknown sources, and do not enter Eggbit's account password and personal information on websites from unknown sources to avoid being stolen by phishing websites or network Trojans;
Install antivirus software and regularly perform antivirus tests on computers and mobile phones;
Update system patches on time;
Do not give the verification code sent by the official to others;
When you log in or perform transaction-related operations, please confirm whether the domain name belongs to Eggbit. For unknown domain names, you can consult customer service.
The only official website is www.eggbit.com
