The new type of scam on Discord "try my game" has caused multiple users to lose cryptocurrency and NFTs

ChainCatcher news, according to CoinTelegraph, a Discord scam called "try my game" is on the rise, leading to multiple users losing cryptocurrency and NFTs. This scam involves hackers infiltrating Discord servers or groups, using social engineering techniques to gain users' trust, and then inviting users to play a game by sending links containing Trojan malware, thereby gaining access to users' devices, stealing personal information, and draining connected wallets.

NFT artist Princess Hypio stated on August 21 that she lost $170,000 worth of cryptocurrency and NFTs while playing a Steam game with the scammer. Kraken's Chief Security Officer Nick Percoco pointed out that these methods have become increasingly popular attack vectors, emphasizing that "the biggest vulnerability in the cryptocurrency space is not the code, but trust."
