Recently, a new phishing tactic has emerged in the Solana ecosystem: scammers induce users to sign without carefully reading, resulting in assets being lost directly.
I heard that a leading wallet has already strengthened the detection of such transactions and will provide users with more obvious risk warnings. Another well-known wallet has also followed suit, starting to mark and remind users of similar phishing behaviors.
To be honest, this method is indeed cunning—it's just exploiting users' "habitual clicking" mentality. Many people don't fully understand the transaction details, and combined with the large amount of information on the interface, it's easy to confirm without knowing what they're signing. Wallet products are now strengthening their defenses, but users also need to develop the habit of carefully reviewing before acting. Especially for operations involving asset transfers, taking an extra second could truly save oneself.

Basically, it's just laziness. If you act recklessly, you'll have to pay the price.

You really need to pause before signing, or even the strongest wallet defenses can't save you.

Wait a minute, I've already spotted the trap of this signature scheme in on-chain data. Only after the wallet defense line was updated did I follow up, indicating the problem is much more serious than reported.

Oh no, it's the same old trick. The Solana ecosystem is really unstable right now.
People who aren't careful before signing are bound to learn their lesson. This time, I guess they paid the tuition fee.
Enhanced wallet alerts are a good thing, but honestly, most people will still skip warnings and habitually click through.
Ultimately, it still depends on yourself. Don't be so eager for quick results. Asset transfers really shouldn't be clicked instantly; a three-second pause can save your life.

You really need to take a moment to look before signing, this time's painful lesson
