I received a message on Twitter claiming that he was an employee of Fabric Ventures, and that they were forming groups of around 10 people who are knowledgeable in Crypto and Web3. They were allegedly meeting twice per week discussing all crypto related news, sharing experiences and researching Web3-related investment opportunities.
He explained that my profile fit their requirements and I was requested to join them in an interview to determine whether I am eligible for hiring in their groups. He then shared a meeting link with me for the interview.
Before installing the X-call.app software, I already had suspicions and decided to scan the installer using virustotal.com. The scan results were clean, and I proceeded to double click the installer.
The installer seemed to download files for installation and was showing me ads for interesting features like live AI voice translation. An error showed at the end of the installation, and I quickly started scanning my computer for malware. 11 threats were detected, and no matter how many times I delete/quarantine the malwares, they keep reappearing upon device restart.
It is only a few hours later that I discover that my wallet has been drained.
A few days later, I received alerts from Google informing me that suspicious activity has been detected on my accounts (as shown in the screenshot provided in the evidence).
