Cryptocurrency, often associated with computer geeks or people looking to get rich quick, has become a popular means of payment. According to a recent report from Kaspersky Lab, approximately one in ten (13%) people have made purchases using digital assets.

However, cybercriminals are also taking advantage of this trend by attacking cryptocurrency exchanges and modifying old methods of fleecing. This leaves honest citizens at risk of losing their savings as hackers come up with increasingly sophisticated methods of gaining access to other people's money.
