Scammers are exploiting a fake vulnerability disclosure to phish Jupiter users, according to recent reports. The scam involves spreading false claims about a "Jupiter Exchange Vulnerability" through advertisements, urging users to paste malicious code into their browser console. This action leads to wallet theft, highlighting the importance of user vigilance in the face of such deceptive tactics.

The phishing campaign, which is currently active, targets users of the Jupiter exchange. Scammers are taking advantage of users' trust in the platform by spreading false information about a vulnerability. By urging users to paste malicious code into their browser console, scammers are able to gain unauthorized access to users' wallets, resulting in theft.

Users are advised to remain cautious and beware of the risk associated with such phishing campaigns. It is essential to verify the authenticity of any claims or requests for action before taking any steps. In this case, users should be wary of any claims about a "Jupiter Exchange Vulnerability" and avoid pasting any code into their browser console unless they are certain of its source and purpose.

The use of fake vulnerability disclosures to phish users is a common tactic employed by scammers. By exploiting users' trust in a platform and their desire to protect their assets, scammers can gain access to sensitive information and steal valuable assets. Users should always be vigilant and take steps to verify the authenticity of any claims or requests for action before taking any steps.

@Mary Gerald Sold $24k in one day? That's some serious luck. I was stuck in my old BTC, should've sold when I had the chance. FOMO hits hard.

This phishing scam is a classic case of social engineering. Stay vigilant and never paste random code into your browser console.
