Malware delivered through Facebook crypto ads runs silent unless it knows you're a worthwhile target
Briefly

Bitdefender has identified a sophisticated malware campaign targeting Bitcoin and crypto investors through Facebook advertisements that impersonate reputable brands such as Binance and TradingView. Cybercriminals hijack Facebook accounts to run these deceptive ads, which feature attractive offers and the images of celebrities to gain user trust. Malware is delivered only under certain conditions, such as the user’s browser and profile settings. This advanced method allows attackers to exfiltrate data while minimizing the risk of detection by security software.
