David Schwartz, Ripple's CTO Emeritus, warned of a phishing scam targeting SecuX wallet users with fake notifications asking for recovery phrases during the wallet's emergency maintenance on October 16. Although SecuX restored service, users still reported access issues, raising concerns about app security. There is no confirmed evidence that SecuX's infrastructure was breached or that cryptocurrency was stolen. The incident highlights the risk of phishing attacks even when hardware wallets remain secure, as recovery phrases can be exploited if voluntarily shared with fraudulent sites.
