A complex phishing campaign, initially on Facebook and expanded to Google Ads and YouTube, promises free access to TradingView, but actually steals personal data and money. Attackers take over legitimate accounts, turning them into fake channels that imitate the platform. This threat affects users globally on Android, macOS, and Windows, with over 500 domains involved. Bitdefender recommends users to download applications only from official sites and to be cautious with ads that offer freebies.
