On August 19, a crypto big shot's wallet was emptied in minutes, with 783 BTC worth about $91 million evaporating in an instant!
The key point is:
This is not a hacker breach, but scammers posing as officials, tricking the big players.
Impersonating exchange and hardware wallet customer service, they tricked away the access credentials.
Immediately after the transfer, the funds flowed into a privacy wallet Wasabi, initiating CoinJoin mixing and laundering.
The funds have been completely muddled, and it’s basically impossible to recover them.
⚡ This is also one of the largest single Bitcoin losses caused by social engineering attacks in recent years!
Why is it so scary?
The scammer is either a hacker gang or an experienced fraud group.
Not relying on technical vulnerabilities, but on 'human nature being breached'.
This year, billions of dollars in assets have been lost this way!
This year, some even received fake 'official letters'; believing them led to giving away their wallets, instantly wiping out everything!
A reminder for all players:
Never share your recovery phrase and private key!
So-called 'official customer service' and 'security upgrades' are most likely scams.
Wallets only recognize official websites; do not click any private chat links.
💡 In short, no matter how transparent the blockchain is, a moment's negligence can lead to total loss.
One oversight = a $91 million lesson.
Don't let the next victim be you.
