Shiba Inu Issues Security Warning as 5,000 Malicious Safe Wallet Addresses Flagged on Feb. 6, 2026

On Feb. 6, 2026, Shiba Inu team member Lucie relayed a Safe Labs alert about an address poisoning and social engineering campaign aimed at Safe Wallet multisig users, with 5,000 lookalike addresses already flagged as malicious. Users are urged to verify full recipient addresses, rely on address books or allow lists, and send small test transfers first, as a recent case saw a crypto holder lose 50 million USDT after copying a spoofed address from transaction history.
