Security warning: : Be wary of the threat of private key theft from scripting tools of unknown origin

According to online reports, according to a post posted by 23pds, chief information security officer of Slowfog, who forwarded X platform user@Miles082510, the developer@web3_cryptoguy pretended to be a Web3 "tool author" and provided a scripting tool suspected of scanning local sensitive files in the background, with the intention of stealing key data such as private keys, wallet files, configuration files, code, and mnemonics. The data will be secretly uploaded to an anonymous server, making the entire process almost invisible to users. Remind users to avoid using dubious scripting tools.
