Crypto phishing attacks in November have revealed a dangerous signal: attackers are starting to target large holders.
The latest monitoring data shows that phishing attacks last month resulted in about $7.77 million evaporating, affecting 6,344 victims. The amount of losses surged 137% compared to the previous month, but the number of victims actually dropped by 42%—what does this mean? Attack strategies have changed.
Hackers are no longer casting a wide net, but are instead precisely targeting whale wallets. The single worst case saw losses as high as $1.22 million, with the attack method being a signature authorization trap. Attack frequency has decreased, but the amount stolen in a single attack is soaring. This wave of activity is both professional and ruthless.

Accurately targeting whales, these hackers are getting more and more professional—it's honestly a bit scary.
---
Signature authorization traps? I need to check my wallet right away, can't afford to be careless.
---
$7.77 million evaporated, but the number of victims is actually lower? Shows that big players are the real targets.
---
A single loss of $1.22 million... my god, how ruthless can you be, even daring to steal authorizations.
---
This is the scariest part—from quantity to quality, hacker teams are now operating in an organized manner.
---
I just want to know how these whales still have the nerve to claim they have strong security awareness.
---
Lowering the frequency and increasing the amount per transaction—that's definitely the tactic of pros, not your average retail hacker.
---
$7.77 million gone, so whose wallet did it end up in? This criminal chain runs pretty deep.

Oh no, even the whales can't handle it now. Hackers have really gotten smarter...
---
Signature authorization trap? I was just saying, these phishing links have gotten more and more sophisticated lately, directly targeting individuals.
---
7.77 million evaporated—how do you even account for that? It's terrifying.
---
Seriously, how do they manage to precisely target whale wallets? The technical skill involved is just insane.
---
A single loss of 1.22 million... Oh my, I need to check my authorization records.
---
Fewer attacks, but the amounts have skyrocketed. This shows hackers are really going after “high-quality clients” now—hilarious.
---
So now we not only have to guard against small-time scams, but also targeted attacks? The web3 environment is truly cutthroat.
---
Over 6,000 victims lost a total of 7.77 million—that’s an average loss of around 120,000 each? There’s a heartbreaking story behind every number.
---
Signature authorization traps are really hard to guard against. I almost got phished before, but luckily I reacted in time.
---
They’ve upgraded from small-time phishing to big business now. The black market supply chain is really something...

Oh no, the whales are in trouble now. The hackers have started doing precision targeting.
Here we go again, it’s the same old signature authorization trick. No wonder they can steal $1.22 million in a single transaction.
Just by looking at this data, you can tell they’re not faking volume—they’re seriously making money.
I just want to know, among those 6,344 victims, how many clicked on some weird links themselves.
7.77 million evaporated—just thinking about it is scary. This time, we really need to be careful with authorizations.
Single largest transaction: $1.22 million? Bro, don’t keep too much money in your wallet.
These hackers have gotten smarter. They’ve gone from casting a wide net to precision headshots—it feels even more dangerous now.

Big players need to stay alert; hackers are now going for targeted strikes, not just casting a wide net anymore.

Oh no, the whales really should be nervous now—hackers are getting precise with their targeting.
1.22 million in a single transaction? Damn, that's more than I make.
It's really impossible to guard against signature authorization traps like this.
Here we go again—this is exactly why I always use multiple wallets with small amounts.
You have to be super cautious with large transactions; those guys are insanely professional.
It’s crazy how intense phishing has become these days.
Kind of scary, I’ll have to be even more careful next time I sign something.
The whales probably won’t sleep well this month, but I’m different.
Looking at this data is painful—fewer people, but even more money lost.
