A website on WP being used to steal crypto

  • Unknown's avatar

    agroecologyhub.org – we have been getting fake emails from a sub-domain of this website on WP pretending to be an email form a popular crypto wallet trying to gain access…
    WP staff, please remove this hacker website from your system.
    Here’s the email being used:
    (email visible only to moderators and staff)
    Our system has shown that your Trust wallet has not yet been verified. This verification can be done easily via the page below.

    Due to the new update of NFT’s, all unverified accounts will be suspended on Monday, November 15, 2021. We’re sorry for any inconvenience we cause with this, but please keep in mind that our intention is to keep our customers safe and happy.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    It looks like that site is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted at NetNerd.

    Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, so WordPress.com staff can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers.

    You can find more information here about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

    You should reach out to their hosting provider to let them know about this particular site. The site might itself be hacked and the owners are unaware.

    Otherwise, mark those phishing emails as spam in your email program and ignore them.

    I hope that clarifies things.
