[Bit推] GK8's latest security report shows that cybercriminals are recruiting professional voice impersonators on underground forums to launch sophisticated "vishing" attacks against US crypto assets executives. These highly tailored attacks target high-value individuals with custody infrastructure and Private Key access, with operators earning up to $20,000 per month.
Attackers are using meticulously gathered personal information of executives, deepfake technology, and voice changers to impersonate banks, crypto services, and government agencies for social engineering attacks. GK8's Head of Security Research, Tanya Bekker, warns that distinguishing between real and fake will become increasingly difficult in the next 12 to 18 months, and advises crypto organizations to implement specific protocols and training to counter voice and video social engineering strategies.

A monthly income of 20,000 is so tempting!

This is ridiculous, catching executives with 20k dollars.
