The title of the article is pure fud, and I think the article doesn't describe the issue very well, but it looks like the issue itself is real.
The original report describes the issue much better, and without fud: https://drops.scamsniffer.io/post/wallet-drainers-starts-using-create2-bypass-wallet-security-alert/
So it looks like scammers found a way to circumvent wallet warnings (like Rabby has for example) for known scam addresses. I don't understand how users are lured into using the contracts that sends their funds to these addresses though?
