A gang of five was sentenced and fined for stealing 3,000 USDT by teaching themselves "hacking" techniques

A gang composed of five people including Lin and Chen paid for someone to build a fake benchmarking website, and implanted the purchased Trojan virus in the website link. Then they used chat software to lure the victim to click on the link, and then remotely controlled the computer to steal Virtual currency. The five people stole a total of 3,000 USDT coins worth 18,000 yuan. In March 2022, five people were arrested by the public security organs, and the public prosecution agency later brought the five people to court.

Guangzhou Haizhu Court ruled that five defendants were sentenced to prison terms ranging from 65 months to 2 years and fines ranging from 3,000 yuan to 12,000 yuan for illegally obtaining computer information. The judgment is now effective. #BTC #ETH
