Show HN: Phishbert, an anti-phishing Slack bot for ICO teams

4 pointsby ummjacksonover 7 years ago
Hi all,<p>I&#x27;m not the biggest fan of the ICO space these days, but it does pain me to see a ton of people losing money through phishing scams via Slack.<p>I&#x27;ve put together a simple, open-source Slack bot called phishbert that will automatically monitor and delete any Ethereum addresses or Etherscan.io links that are posted in the channels you add it to. It&#x27;s extensible so you can filter out any other type of message that can be matched with a regex, too.<p>It only takes a couple minutes to setup, so I implore anyone who feels the need to run an ICO right now to implement some sort of preventative measure like this, to reduce the # of people who get scammed.<p>You can get started @ <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;ummjackson&#x2F;phishbert" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;ummjackson&#x2F;phishbert</a>
