Hardware-wallet makers Trezor and BitBox are warning users about fraudulent security alerts linked to a breach involving an email or newsletter service. According to Cointelegraph, BitBox said several Bitcoin companies may have been targeted through a shared newsletter provider. Trezor separately confirmed that its email service had been breached. The incidents appear to have been used to distribute deceptive messages designed to resemble legitimate security communications from hardware-wallet providers. Users of Trezor, BitBox and other crypto services should treat unexpected security notices with caution and verify communications through official channels. The report is relevant to Bitcoin users and the wider cryptocurrency market because hardware wallets are commonly used to protect digital assets, including BTC.
