Ready-made $500 kit puts a crypto scam within anyone's reach
A $500 ready-made scam kit sold on a cybercrime forum builds fake Tesla $TSLA presale pages that harvest wallet recovery phrases and cryptocurrency deposits.
Malwarebytes found a $500 scam-in-a-box kit by seller xrep on a cybercrime forum, bundling a fake Tesla-style $TSLA presale site, a victim-tracking admin panel, and controls to inflate fake balances. The kit harvests 12-word wallet recovery phrases via wallet-connection prompts or accepts direct transfers in Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, or Dogecoin. The admin panel lets operators check stolen wallets' value before draining them, raise displayed balances to encourage further deposits, and send follow-up messages demanding fake network fees.
