BitMEX Research: A Bitcoin phishing scam disguises stolen addresses on Mt. Gox and sends inducement messages

According to Foresight News, BitMEX Research has discovered a carefully designed scam targeting Bitcoin users recently. Someone is using Bitcoin addresses from the 2011 era to send transactions with OP-Return output, including the 1Feex... address that was stolen approximately 80000 BTC from Mt. Gox. The OP-Return information in these transactions refers to a website that claims: 'This digital wallet appears to be lost or abandoned. Our client has assumed possession of it and is seeking confirmation of whether there is a true owner.'. Subsequently, the page provides a form that requires filling in personal details. The investigation shows that the website has no real connection with the alleged 1980s Wall Street giant, Solomon Brothers. The real people listed on the "Advisory Committee" page of the website who worked at Solomon Brothers are actually unrelated to the suspicious entity. BitMEX Research reminds users not to fill out forms on the website, as this is likely a data collection scam targeting cryptocurrency holders.
