Attention please, attack on 0xPolygon is ongoing right now!
Users see an RPC error asking users to urgently reset their seed on polygonapp.net (looks like this is wether DNS hijack or a form of a supply chain attack).
Just a scam popup to bring you to a page to put your seed.
New attack vector discovered*
✅
* Bitcoin wallet Electrum has had this issue in the past - dishonest nodes phishing. First time on “modern chains”.
Use your own RPCs. You can get one for free with POKTnetwork or AlchemyPlatform!
Literally the same attack is ongoing now on Fantom!
rpc.ftm.tools is having issues at the moment and should not be used.
If you're using that RPC, please change it to the following: rpc.ankr.com/fantom
