Warning! Do not open any files sent by users

WARNING

We are receiving reports from users that one of our members was spreading infected .doc files. The files include DLL’s that drop crypto sniffers/stealers. This was verified by 3rd party malware sites. For more information, click here.

DO NOT OPEN ANY SORT OF FILES SENT TO YOU

Ask users to copy the data directly into a reply. We will further investigate this issue, but it’s wise not to open any files send by any user, ever.

If you recently downloaded something, scan your PC right now. So far, user @daher2531 has been sending files. His account is placed on hold until this is resolved and investigated.

i think clear your Brower or something?

@SWAPD have you talk to this @daher2531 why is he sending this files and why he’s still not Ban yet?

But if he was diamond or millionaire clubs on Swapd i think I will have click on it :sweat_smile:

ios you will be fine.

normally only way the .doc malware infects your PC is if you open it in office365 etc and click “enable macros”, sometimes they disguise it with a fake page that says “click here to access” etc

if you opened the doc on a windows machine i’d recommend a clean reset of your OS

I believe macOS malware is transmitted through dmg files (IOS is safe, DMG being on a macbook etc) not doc/pdf etc

i’d also change all your password, move crypto to new wallets and go through all your accounts and logout of the websites to kill the sessions

I opened it on the iOS Notes app. Are there any issues with it?

I also didn’t want to open then,
He said he didn’t write it to protect it from leaks to which I replied this :point_down:

I opened it because I thought of his good reviews.

I think his account got effed up too
Mofo already had good reviews with an old account.
That’s why I opened it without a doubt.

Could be.

But this put a lot of people at risk, we need to have some kind of virus scanner for uploads here @SWAPD this is just a suggestion.
