iPhone users beware! Bitcoin scammers hacking devices via Tinder, Bumble

  • Cryptocurrency scammers are targeting iPhone users across three continents through popular dating apps like Tinder and Bumble, cybersecurity firm Sophos Research stated in a recent report.
  • In addition to stealing money, the scammers can use the fake cryptocurrency app to even gain access to victims’ iPhones, Sophos found.
  • For this, cybercriminals use ‘Enterprise Signature’, a system for software developers to pre-test new iOS applications with selected iPhone users before they are submitted to the Apple App Store for review and approval.
