Mark Cuban’s cryptocurrency wallet was robbed for $870,000.
The American billionaire and owner of the Dallas Mavericks NBA basketball team, Mark Cuban, reported he was the victim of a hack.
Hackers withdrew USDC and USDT stablecoins, ETH, and a number of other coins from his wallet.
How did this happen?
Cuban believes that he downloaded a fake version of MetaMask. Many scammers create fake browser extensions or MetaMask applications, tricking users into providing their private keys or passphrases. Once they have access to a wallet, hackers can easily empty its contents.
We’ve said it many times: Always pay attention to where you download programs from. No one is immune to hacks, and, naturally, the money cannot be returned to the entrepreneur.#opbnb #ETH #Layer2 #BTC #crypto2023
