Atomic Wallet, which was hacked, claimed that only 1 percent of its users were affected by the attack.
Atomic Wallet, which was recently hacked, said that only 1 percent of its users were affected by the attack, in which $35 million was stolen. Trying to monetize this turmoil, several fraudulent Twitter accounts shared phishing links claiming to help users recover lost funds by impersonating Atomic Wallet.
Largest Amount Lost $7.95 Million
Fake chains researcher ZachXBT claimed to have helped a victim recover $1 million in lost funds.
Despite the company’s announcement, a large number of users continued to report loss of funds. In addition, the community denounced the company’s attempt to mitigate the loss, saying: “Percentage doesn’t matter, hackers are only planning to focus on large fund wallets.” This case reflects the importance of searching for the right service provider when it comes to the custody of crypto assets.
ZachXBT’s research revealed that the largest amount lost by a single person in the attack was Tether worth $7.95 million on the Tron blockchain. According to the latest update, the five biggest losses amount to $ 17 million.
Finally, Atomic Wallet continues its efforts to track and recover stolen funds, together with individual blockchain researchers.
