There's a new phishing bot that's targeting unsuspecting MetaMask users. The digital currency wallet warned its users against the bot on Twitter. It reportedly poses as an instant support portal before attempting to mislead the users into giving up their seed phrases.

MetaMask has soared in popularity in recent years amid the rising adoption of digital currencies. The wallet recently revealed that it had crossed the five million users' mark. It attributed the milestone to its rapid growth in the global south including India, Indonesia, Vietnam and Nigeria. This milestone came just six months after it hit one million users.
