Fake Google Ads Drain Over $400K from DeFi Users through Uniswap Impersonation

A recent phishing campaign has targeted DeFi users, exploiting vulnerabilities in search engine advertising infrastructure to drain over $400,000 from unsuspecting victims.

The attackers used fake Google ads that impersonated the Uniswap protocol, taking advantage of a long-standing vulnerability in search engine advertising.

Blockchain data reveals that the primary exploiters currently hold 146 ETH (valued at roughly $306,000) across two flagged core wallets.
