User lost $0.9M due to malicious link in Google Ads
A user under the pseudonym meUp_meQuit lost 900,000 USDC due to a malicious advert for the Celer Bridge crosschain protocol in Google Ads.
Experts from the Scam Sniffer project noticed that the abbreviated address and website design were completely the same as the original.
The fact that it was a fake could only be noticed when going directly to the site, where the user was immediately asked for permission to connect an account.
