In the official Twitter page announcement, Balancer warned users about a new type of phishing attack.

Accordingly, the method of this attack is similar to the case Uniswap users encountered a few days ago. Hackers will send fake links, informing users that they have the opportunity to receive airdrops from the liquidity supply (LP) on the DEX platform. And when users interact and authorize the aforementioned links, the assets in the wallet will be stolen.

The recent Uniswap phishing incident also led CZ – CEO of Binance, to issue a false alarm.

The problem of Balancer is a phishing attack with a rather new method, not simply stealing the domain or faking the interface as before.

Phishing attacks are no longer strange to DeFi projects when many popular names have targeted this form of spoofing. However, these forms are becoming increasingly sophisticated, especially forging deep into the blockchain transaction layer, as with Balancer.
