An email phishing scam targeting BlockFi, FTX creditors last week caused at least $5 million in losses
On March 25th, it was reported that a scam targeting creditors of bankrupt crypto companies such as BlockFi and FTX had stolen at least $5 million worth of cryptocurrency and NFTs. Security expert Plumferno stated that the hackers may have obtained email address lists from data initially stolen from email service Mailer Lite, which was hacked in January. Most of the assets were stolen from dormant wallets, which may have been affected by the BlockFi bankruptcy and have not been touched since. Some victims may also be unaware that they have been robbed.
