According to BlockBeats, on March 2, Mask Network founder Suji Yan issued an ultimatum to a hacker, stating that international law enforcement agencies, including Interpol, the FBI, Hong Kong police, and private security firms, have identified the hacker and are pursuing them. Yan revealed that the hacker's personal information has been fully exposed and that they possess conclusive evidence against the individual.
The hacker has been given 72 hours to return the stolen funds, with the promise of a substantial bounty as an incentive for cooperation. Yan urged the hacker to contact him at [email protected] and return the funds to the specified address: 0xd96c8525d7199a2aae392adcab5513a09280a03f. Upon the return of the funds, all tracking efforts will cease, collected data will be destroyed, and the case will be closed.
Yan warned that failure to comply would result in escalated enforcement actions, including a global block on the hacker's address and severe legal consequences for the hacker and any accomplices. He emphasized that this is the hacker's only opportunity to resolve the situation amicably.
