Abstract generation in progress

A team of cybersecurity specialists has discovered a series of fake websites: "allocation-hamster.com", "ciaim-hamsterkombat.com", "claimhamster.pages.dev", targeting users of the popular "Hamster Kombat" project.

Important Warning: These resources are phishing and pose a serious threat to the security of your assets!

Genuine official resources:

  • Official website: hamsterkombat.io
  • Official account on Twitter/X: @hamster_kombat
  • Official Telegram channel: t.me/hamster_kombat

Technical Analysis of the Threat:

  1. Interface Substitution: Fraudulent websites copy the design of the original resource but modify key elements to deceive users.

  2. Hidden Redirects: A mechanism for automatic redirection from "allocation-hamster.com" to "allocation-hamsterkombat.com" has been detected without notifying the user.

  3. Replacement of key elements: The "Play Now" button has been replaced with "Claim Now" / "Claim Token" to simulate token distribution.

  4. Automated Transactions: Pressing the button activates the wallet connection dialog with subsequent automatic transaction initiation.

  5. Withdrawal mechanism: Hidden functions of the smart contract are used for unauthorized withdrawal of funds (BNB) from the user's wallet.

  6. Wallet balance check: The website "ciaim-hamsterkombat.com" has implemented a balance check mechanism that blocks interaction with low-value wallets and requires topping up.

  7. Social Engineering: After replenishing the balance, fraudsters immediately withdraw all funds, leaving the user without assets.

Recommendations for Protection:

  • Always check the URLs before interacting with crypto projects
  • Use only official links from verified sources
  • Do not succumb to calls to urgently obtain tokens or bonuses (FOMO)
  • When connecting your wallet, carefully check the requested permissions
  • For additional protection, it is recommended to use specialized security extensions.

Be vigilant and conduct thorough checks before any actions with your crypto assets.
