Malicious actors realized that cryptocurrency users don't pay much attention to these tiny amounts showing up in their wallet addresses. So they began "dusting" a large number of addresses by sending a few satoshis to them . After dusting different addresses, the next step of a dusting attack involves a combined analysis of those addresses in an attempt to identify which ones belong to the same crypto wallet.
The goal is to eventually link the dusted addresses and wallets to their respective companies or individuals. If successful, the attackers may use this knowledge against their targets, either through elaboratedDust attacks were initially performed on the Bitcoin network, but they are also happening with Litecoin, BNB, and other cryptocurrencies. This is possible because most cryptocurrencies are running on top of a traceable and public blockchain.
In late October 2018, Samourai Wallet developers announced that some of their users were under dusting attacks. The company sent out awarning users about the attacks and explaining how they could protect themselves. The Samourai Wallet team implemented a real-time alert for dust tracking as well as a "Do Not Spend" feature that lets users mark suspicious funds, so these are not included in future transactions.
Since dusting attacks rely on a combined analysis of multiple addresses, if a dust fund is not moved, attackers aren't able to make the connections they need to "deanonymize" the wallets. Samourai Wallet already has the ability to automatically report suspicious transactions to their users. Despite the dust limit of 546 satoshis, many dusting attacks today are well above it and are usually ranging from 1000 to 5000 satoshis.

This type of act is a result of the spread of cryptocurrencies, if you really want to be an investor, buy an external wallet, like Ledger. The passers say ''ahh coins are not safe'', but the banks are? Set your priorities.
