Hey everyone, just wanted to give a heads up about a job scam I almost fell for so nobody else goes through the same thing.

I applied for a Remote Data Analyst position at a company called Criptoro (criptoro.biz). The job post looked totally legit — good salary, well written, realistic requirements. They replied, scheduled an interview, and everything seemed normal.

Then they sent me a wechat link that led to a fake Cloudflare verification page. It asked me to press Windows + R, then Ctrl + V, then Enter. What I didn’t know was that the page had automatically copied a malicious command to my clipboard. Following those steps basically runs malware on your computer without you realizing it.

Just a reminder — real Cloudflare verification NEVER asks you to press keyboard shortcuts or open anything on your computer. If you see that, close the page immediately.

Stay safe out there 💙
