Incident Overview

More than 70,000 addresses connected to Uniswap were airdropped tokens that tricked users into approving transactions that would allow attackers to control their wallets. The airdrop links users to a phishing site that resembles the real Uniswap site. Users are tricked into signing contracts, and cryptocurrencies and NFTs are stolen from wallets. One of the wallets lost more than $6.5 million worth of ether and bitcoin, and the other lost about $1.68 million worth of cryptocurrency.
