Cybernews has reported that fake cryptocurrency wallet applications are targeting Linux users, specifically those pretending to be popular wallets like Exodus, Trust Wallet, and Ledger Live. These malicious apps are available in the Canonical Snap Store and have been designed to steal cryptocurrency from unsuspecting users. This situation poses a significant risk for Linux users who may believe they are downloading legitimate software when in fact they are exposing themselves to malware. Users are advised to be cautious when downloading apps and to verify the authenticity of the software they use for managing their cryptocurrency.
