The number of cases of coronavirus infection is growing every day, however, online scammers are not idle and come up with new ways to deceive Web users. As Chester Wisniewski, a specialist at Sophos, summarized, criminals impersonate the World Health Organization (WHO) to steal cryptocurrency donations to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fraudsters try to steal funds intended for the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund (COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund) by deception. WHO created this fund in collaboration with the UN Foundation after the agency officially classified coronavirus as a pandemic on March 11. Its main goal is to prepare the countries of the world for the fight against the virus, and especially those states in which the healthcare system is poorly developed.
Criminals ask users to make a donation by sending bitcoins directly to the address indicated in the email. Copycats also use the fake address donate @ who [.] Int for greater credibility.
