Phishing Kit Targets Crypto Users via SMS

March 4, 2024
Reading Time: 3 mins read

The discovery of a sophisticated phishing kit, dubbed CryptoChameleon, has raised concerns as it targets mobile users by impersonating the login pages of prominent cryptocurrency services. This kit, part of a larger attack cluster, employs a variety of tactics including email, SMS, and voice phishing to deceive victims into sharing sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and even photo IDs. Notably, the targets of this campaign include not only individual cryptocurrency users but also employees of major organizations like the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Binance, and Coinbase.

One of the key features of the phishing kit is its ability to replicate single sign-on (SSO) pages, allowing attackers to create convincing duplicates of legitimate login screens. Moreover, the kit is designed to evade detection by implementing CAPTCHA tests using hCaptcha, ensuring that fake login screens are only displayed after the victim completes the test. Furthermore, the phishing pages are distributed through unsolicited phone calls and text messages, often impersonating a company’s customer support team to instill a sense of urgency and legitimacy.

Once victims enter their credentials, they may be prompted to provide additional authentication such as a two-factor authentication (2FA) code or asked to “wait” while the information is supposedly verified. The attacker can then capture the one-time password (OTP) entered by the user, using it to gain access to the victim’s online accounts. Additionally, the phishing kit allows for real-time customization of the phishing page, further enhancing its illusion of credibility by incorporating the last two digits of the victim’s phone number and selecting the appropriate token length.

Despite similarities to previous phishing techniques employed by groups like Scattered Spider, the CryptoChameleon campaign exhibits distinct capabilities and infrastructure within its phishing kit. This highlights the evolution of threat actor tactics, as they adapt and refine their methods to maximize success. The combination of sophisticated phishing URLs, convincing login pages, and consistent communication through SMS and voice calls has enabled threat actors to effectively steal high-quality data, underscoring the need for continued vigilance and security measures among cryptocurrency users and organizations alike.
