“Earthquake Scam Shakes Gold and Currency Markets: Hackers Target Traders”
Market Volatility: Gold Dips as Currency Rises
Today’s market trends reversed Tuesday’s movements, with the dollar and gold coin prices climbing while gold bullion dropped to a support threshold. Analysts point to two key factors behind gold’s decline.
Why Gold Prices Fell
Market Correction: On Tuesday, currency and gold coin markets dipped, but gold bullion remained stagnant, inflating its price bubble. By Wednesday, the delayed reaction set in, causing a drop in bullion prices and reducing the bubble.
Blocked Market Dynamics: In a “blocked” market scenario, sellers gain the upper hand, leading to increased gold sales on Wednesday.
Hackers Exploit Earthquake Scare
Traders issued urgent warnings about a phishing scam linked to a fake video titled “8.5 Magnitude Earthquake in Bangkok.” The malicious link, when opened, reportedly hacked bank accounts of several traders. Authorities are yet to confirm the scale of the breach.
