North Korean Hackers Target Manta Network Co-Founder with Fake Zoom Call Phishing Attack

Kenny Li, co-founder of Manta Network, an Ethereum layer-2 project, reported being targeted in a sophisticated phishing attack believed to be orchestrated by the Lazarus Group, a North Korean state-backed hacking unit. The attack involved a fake Zoom call where Li was invited by a known contact via Telegram. During the call, familiar faces appeared on camera, but there was no audio, followed by a prompt to download a script to fix the audio issue, which Li suspected was malicious. Li managed to avoid the trap by refusing to download the script and attempting to switch the meeting platform to Google Meet, which the impersonator rejected. Subsequently, all communication was erased, and Li was blocked. Although Li was not certain it was the Lazarus Group, security researchers noted that the method matched the group's modus operandi. The Lazarus Group, linked to the $1.4 billion Bybit hack, has been expanding its tactics to include deepfake video, malware, and social engineering to target cryptocurrency industry professionals.
