🔥 JUST IN: A User Claims Claude Chat Sent Malicious Download Link
A user on X claims they were hacked after Claude gave them a download link for a transcription app — the link led to a copycat site bundling malware, not the real app.
The user then wiped and rebuilt their laptop as a precaution.
While restoring backups, they say they found a fake SKILL.md file disguised as their own writing style guide.
The file allegedly contained hidden instructions to silently re-download the malware and steal credentials every time the AI loaded it.
