🚨 @PREMINT_NFT’s website is compromised.

What do I do? 🧵
1/ Goto revoke.cash or EverRise.com/EverRevoke and revoke all “set approval for all” and any crazy token allowances
2/ Move any NFT or Tokens you can’t afford to lose to a VAULT 🔒
3/ What do you mean by VAULT?
By VAULT I mean a cold storage wallet such as a @Ledger however this would never even be connected to MetaMask or any dApps. Strictly to send assets IN and OUT. Meaning no buying on @opensea or interacting with a staking contract!
4/ How could I have protected myself? This one is tough but the best thing you could’ve done is understand that the only place that truly should require “set approval for all” is @opensea or other NFT marketplaces.

🔎 Always check the website making the request as well Image
5/ Let’s talk about what went wrong with @PREMINT_NFT

- the file compromised on premint’s website is “boomerang.js”

- The LIKELY suspect is a third party dependency being compromised

- This allowed the hacker to download their script onto your computer and run it automatically
TL;DR/

🚨 @PREMINT_NFT Website compromised

⚠️ Always check where a “set approval for all” is coming from

🔒 Utilize a VAULT for your precious NFTs & Tokens Image

◻️ How to create a Burner Wallet 🔥

// THREAD🧵 //
💰 Secure your assets //

By using a burner wallet for your web3 transactions, you can increase the security of your assets and protect them from potential threats. If you happen to interact with a malicious transaction, your other wallets will remain safe.
🕵️ Maintain your privacy //

A burner wallet can help you maintain privacy in your transactions, but it's important to remember that your operational security (OpSec) in funding the burner wallet will greatly affect the level of privacy you can achieve.
