Hayden Adams, the founder of Uniswap, took to social media to alert the crypto community about a new wave of scams targeting users through deceptive user interfaces (UIs) in crypto wallets.
Adams’ warning sheds light on how scammers are leveraging fake clones of Ethereum Name Service (ENS) domains to deceive users and potentially siphon funds.
In a post on X, Adams expressed his concern, stating, “first time I’ve seen this scam, so posting it as a heads up for users and interfaces.”
