 <p>Trezor found that an unauthorized person had accessed the newsletter subscriber email address database and used a third-party email service to send a malicious email.</p>
 <p>The project team has already managed to “deactivate the malicious link” and stated that the user’s funds will remain safe unless they enter their recovery seed.</p>

 <p>It is noteworthy that attackers took advantage of a vulnerability in the MailerLite digital marketing platform just a few days before the incident. Posing as well-known cryptocurrency companies, unknown people were able to steal about $600,000. The scammers pretended to be representatives of CoinTelegraph, Token Terminal, Wallet Connect, and De.Fi in emails. The emails contained malicious links leading to sites created to steal crypto assets.</p>
