๐ฑ๐ซจ Hacker Makes $14 Million Consolation Payment to Crypto Victim!
In a shocking turn of events, a hacker involved in one of the largest trap link attacks in the cryptocurrency world last week has made a surprising move. Following the theft of 1155 #WBTC worth $71 million, the hacker has now refunded $14 million to the victim! ๐ฐ๐
The hacker sent a total of 4676 ETH in separate transactions back to the crypto investor who suffered the massive loss. ๐๐ธ
What Went Down? ๐ค
Trap schemes targeting user inattention have been on the rise in the crypto world lately. In this case, the victim intended to send 1155 WBTC to a self-created address. However, the hacker cleverly created a similar address, exploiting the user's oversight. ๐ฑ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ
The victim mistakenly sent all their WBTC to the similar-looking address used by the hacker, instead of their intended destination. ๐๐
Had the victim carefully checked all the letters in the addresses, this costly mistake could have been avoided. Copy/paste transactions can be risky, especially in the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency. ๐จโ ๏ธ
Lessons Learned ๐ก
Always double-check wallet addresses and be vigilant against trap link attacks. A moment of oversight could result in significant financial losses. Stay informed, stay secure! ๐๐ก
