    Trying to make sense of recent QR code phishing targeting US institutions

    I’m curious about the technical part. How does this QR code bypass MFA exactly? I know the report mentions session token replay, but does that mean even a correctly entered MFA code wouldn’t stop them?

    Paxful platform changes and user experiences

    Yeah, that makes sense. I’ll be keeping an eye on any updates and testing small withdrawals too. Appreciate everyone’s thoughts here—it really helps make sense of the situation.

    Paxful platform changes and user experiences

    Exactly. The DOJ filings are mostly about compliance violations, not fraud against users. But it’s still a factor in understanding why there might have been account freezes or slow response times in the past.

    Paxful platform changes and user experiences

    That’s a good point. I think people holding larger balances might want to be extra careful. Public notices mostly emphasize the winding-down date rather than step-by-step instructions, so it feels a bit uncertain.

    Curious About How Maduro Arrest News Is Being Used in a Malware Phishing Campaign

    That’s a good question. I think as long as the focus stays on the tactic (malware via geopolitical themed email) rather than the person named, it’s fine. It’s when titles sensationalize that people might go searching for attachments.

    Paxful platform changes and user experiences

    I haven’t come across anything beyond the site notice either. It’s possible more detailed guidance will come closer to the November deadline, but for now, users are left piecing things together from public filings and media coverage.

    Curious About How Maduro Arrest News Is Being Used in a Malware Phishing Campaign

    Word of mouth helps too. When people talk about “I almost clicked that thing because it mentioned this big news story,” it makes the idea relatable. In security trainings that anecdotal angle often sticks better than technical rules.

    Curious About How Maduro Arrest News Is Being Used in a Malware Phishing Campaign

    I like that you’re emphasizing caution rather than certainty. I think people get defensive when they feel like a report is saying everyone is compromised. Sharing practical awareness without naming sites is probably the best way to get a healthy discussion.

    Good point. There’s no explicit mention in public filings about active trades. I’d imagine the winding-down process would prioritize resolving existing balances, but we can’t know for sure.

    Curious About How Maduro Arrest News Is Being Used in a Malware Phishing Campaign

    I’ve been looking for that too. Nothing concrete that I’ve found in the press. Threat intel blogs sometimes share volume metrics, but without access to private datasets you hardly ever know how infected systems are counted or verified.

    Paxful platform changes and user experiences

    Right, that seems like a real risk. It’s tricky because the official notices give some timelines but not much detail on individual account handling. I guess monitoring official updates and acting quickly might be the safest approach.

    Paxful platform changes and user experiences

    Exactly, the DOJ record is clear about the co-founder, but the implications for daily traders aren’t spelled out. The public reports just note that there was exposure to certain risks, so it’s hard to quantify. It seems like you’d want to be extra cautious with any trades right now.

    Has Anyone Seen a DocuSign Themed Malware Phish Recently

    Yeah, the access code part is tricky. It probably makes automated detection less effective. I’ve noticed phishing campaigns lately are focusing more on layered attacks rather than obvious malware drops. Makes me question how prepared smaller firms really are.

    Has Anyone Seen a DocuSign Themed Malware Phish Recently

    Totally valid to be curious that’s how we learn. Just remember that seeing a technical breakdown in a lab doesn’t necessarily mean wide spread impact. It is worth paying attention to patterns though.

    Paxful platform changes and user experiences

    Hey everyone, I was looking into Paxful recently and noticed a few things in public records that caught my eye. Paxful Inc. has been around since 2015 and is based in Wilmington, Delaware. According to reports, they’re currently winding down operations, with an official notice that the platform...

    Has Anyone Seen a DocuSign Themed Malware Phish Recently

    Yeah, kits can do all sorts of things these days. But when talking awareness, it’s still the social engineering piece that’s the root cause. If people are trained to question emails and verify through other means, that reduces risk regardless of whether it’s credential theft or malware.

    Has Anyone Seen a DocuSign Themed Malware Phish Recently

    You asked about validation. One thing people often miss is checking the return path and full email headers if possible. On many phishing setups I’ve seen, the visible sender might say it’s from a trusted service, but the return path or DKIM/DMARC checks fail. That’s usually a red flag even if...

    Has Anyone Seen a DocuSign Themed Malware Phish Recently

    Something I’ve noticed reading around is that phishing campaigns using DocuSign or similar services aren’t new. There are archived alerts showing phishing campaigns with spoofed messages and links for years now. The novelty here might be the combination with a multi-stage loader. But I’d be...

    Curious about the leadership journey of Giri Devanur at reAlpha

    Exactly. With new platforms like this, we can only piece together public info and hope transparency grows. Following Reg A+ filings might be the closest way to get a sense of progress in real time.

    Curious about the leadership journey of Giri Devanur at reAlpha

    Totally. IPO experience gives credibility, but fractional ownership is a different game. Early performance metrics or sample properties would really help to understand execution.
