Crypto Traders Beware: Cunning Hackers Bypass Windows Defender with Sneaky Zero-Day Exploit

In a digital heist fit for a Hollywood script, Water Hydra’s phishing lures on Telegram reeled in crypto traders, hooking them with malware while Microsoft raced against the clock to patch the SmartScreen’s sieve-like defenses. Careful, your next click could fund their next virtual villainy! Focus keyphrase: “exploiting a zero-day vulnerability.”

Hot Take:

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the digital waters, along comes Water Hydra, making a splash in the murky depths of cybercrime. They're not your everyday phishers; these guys have got a zero-day worm on their hook, and it looks like crypto traders are biting. Microsoft patched up the hole, but not before the Hydra got its teeth into a few wallets. Remember kids, don’t click on shiny baits; sometimes they bite back!
