According to an official statement from JPYC Co., Ltd., when searching for "JPYC" in wallets or DEX, counterfeit tokens with similar names, logos, or symbols may appear.The official reminder is to never judge the authenticity of a token solely based on its name or icon.

SlowMist has issued a security warning stating that a high-risk phishing activity targeting TRON wallet users has been discovered. Attackers created a fake Chrome extension for the TronLink wallet, using Unicode bidirectional control characters and Cyrillic homographs to disguise the brand name. After installation, the extension loads a complete phishing page through a remote iframe, forming a "shell-core separation" credential theft chain.The malicious extension name uses homographs for disguise, and its Chrome Store page inherits the high user count and positive reviews of the real extension, lowering the review threshold. There is very little local code, only loading remote pages, making static analysis nearly impossible to detect malicious behavior. The remote phishing page perfectly replicates the official TronLink web wallet interface, stealing mnemonic phrases, private keys, Keystore files, and passwords, and relaying them in real-time via a Telegram Bot.Built-in anti-analysis features disable right-click, developer tools, drag-and-drop, and printing, and redirect based on the geographic and language settings of Russian users to evade detection. SlowMist recommends immediately uninstalling suspicious extensions, clearing local storage, checking for abnormal traffic, and if credentials have been entered, creating a new wallet and transferring assets immediately.

In response to the recent attack on the "ListaDAOLiquidStakingVault" contract, ListaDAO officially released a statement clarifying that the attacked contract was not deployed by the official team, but rather was a counterfeit contract created by an unverified third party using a similar name. All official contracts of ListaDAO were not affected by this incident.According to an in-depth analysis by the GoPlus security team, the attack occurred on April 16, 2026, and the root cause was a business logic flaw in the third-party contract. When a token transfer was made, it triggered the Dividend.setShares() function and altered the share accounting within the contract, which in turn affected the reward calculation in the claimReward() function. The attacker exploited this vulnerability to deplete the assets within the contract.GoPlus reminds that since this logical flaw exists in both segments of the contract code mentioned above, any development projects that fork or reuse this code face a high risk of being exploited. It is recommended that relevant developers promptly conduct code inspections and fixes, and implement continuous auditing mechanisms to ensure the security of smart contracts.
