A global cyber security firm has revealed a major spike in the number of fake emails purporting to be charities bringing aid to Ukraine amid the invasion.
The type of scams seeing the highest level of activity are crypto, and are using tag lines like “Help Ukraine,” “Help Ukraine war victims,” and “Help Ukraine stop the war!” according to Cyren.
Since the violent invasion began, Ukraine has received more than €50 million in crypto donations, and so fraudsters saw their opportunity to strike and took it.
