RE: Phishing Warning: NO Critical Wallet Update, NO Airdrop, NO Giveaway (The reward from this post will go to @keys-defender for helping to detect this threat)

I got push notifications on my laptop (my location is Austria) that opens a fake Kronenzeitung (one of our leading newspapers) featuring Didi Mateschitz, the owner of Red Bull, supposedly giving an interview about how great this is.

the image above links to the scam news page. If you click on any of this the scam site comes up. On the bottom of it you get supposed Facebook user endorsements, but if you try to check them, same happens, the scammers page pops up.

My Norton Security (Symantec) flagged any link as suspicious, meaning that security companies such as Norton are well aware of this:

This is not the first time either, and not the first time Didi Mateschitz has been the target for such fakes.
