A man in Anshun, Guizhou, used the name of a virtual currency airdrop project as a pretext to lure friends into investing with the bait of guaranteed high returns, ultimately crossing the legal red line. The People's Procuratorate of Pingba District, Anshun City, Guizhou Province, filed a public prosecution, and the court sentenced Zhao to seven months in prison for fraud, along with a fine of 5,000 yuan.Zhao had been paying attention to the field of virtual currency investment for many years and had long been posting investment insights and financial management tips on social media platforms. Zhang was also a virtual currency enthusiast, and the two met on a social platform due to their common interests, gradually becoming friends and frequently discussing investment strategies online. Through long-term communication, Zhao gained Zhang's trust with seemingly professional investment analysis. Subsequently, Zhao proposed a joint investment, to which Zhang agreed. However, after a period of investment, Zhang experienced significant losses and expressed his intention to stop further investments.On August 23, 2025, Zhao claimed that a certain app had launched an airdrop project (to promote a new project, encourage user participation, or reward loyal users, distributing native tokens of the project for free to eligible users), persuading Zhang to invest the remaining funds in his account into this project, promising a return of 100 to 200 U coins (virtual currency) within two days. Zhao also guaranteed that if there were any losses during this period, he would bear the responsibility. To further alleviate Zhang's concerns, Zhao claimed that all investment funds would be transferred to a public chain (the public address of the virtual currency). Believing Zhao, Zhang exchanged 1,757 dollars in his account for Ethereum and completed the transfer according to the wallet link provided by Zhao. In reality, the wallet corresponding to that link was a personal account registered using his girlfriend's identity information, not a public chain. The agreed time for the return of funds had passed, but Zhao had not fulfilled his promise. Zhang urged for repayment multiple times, but Zhao evaded responsibility with excuses such as sending the wrong link and needing time to track it down. On September 7 of the same year, Zhang reported the situation to the police after noticing something was wrong.On April 2 of this year, the Pingba District Procuratorate filed a public prosecution against Zhao for suspected fraud. The procuratorial agency believed that Zhao deceived others out of property by concealing the truth, with a significant amount involved, constituting the crime of fraud. Given that Zhao truthfully confessed to the criminal facts after being apprehended, showed signs of remorse, and had fully compensated the victim for their losses while voluntarily admitting guilt, he could be punished leniently according to the law.

According to Lookonchain monitoring, a user lost $100,000 after sending funds without verifying the address copied from the transaction history.Address poisoning attacks are common, so it is essential to carefully verify the wallet address before transferring funds.

The U.S. July seasonally adjusted CPI annual rate is 3.4%, expected 3.4%, previous value 3.50%.

According to GoPlus security alerts, a user lost approximately 100,000 USDT due to an address poisoning attack. The attacker conducted small transactions using malicious addresses with similar ending digits, waiting for the user to make a mistake while copying and pasting.Address poisoning attacks have been fully automated, including discovering poisoning opportunities, creating counterfeit coins with the same name or implementing small-scale poisoning, and mixing coins for money laundering. The victim's address received over four hundred poisoning transactions after executing the last transaction 69 days ago.

According to Cyvers Alert monitoring, an address poisoning attack was discovered, resulting in a loss of approximately 100,000 USDT for the victim. About 66 days ago, the attacker implemented address poisoning on the victim's wallet by sending transactions to create a malicious address record similar to a normal interaction address. The victim did not verify the complete wallet address and mistakenly transferred funds to the attacker's address.After the incident, to avoid potential freezing risks, the attacker exchanged the stolen USDT for ETH and currently holds about 52.8 ETH in the wallet. Cyvers reminds users to always verify the complete wallet address when making on-chain transfers and not to rely solely on address records in transaction history.At the same time, security agencies recommend using AI-based on-chain security tools for real-time detection of abnormal transaction behaviors to reduce risks such as address poisoning and phishing attacks. Address poisoning attacks have become one of the common scams in the cryptocurrency asset field in recent years, with attackers often exploiting users' habits of copying historical transaction addresses to mislead them into transferring assets through forged similar addresses.
