调查结果显示,超过 900 万美元已被冻结,50 万美元已被返还。
Two people have been arrested in connection with a $243 million crypto heist that targeted a creditor of defunct trading firm Genesis, according to blockchain sleuth ZachXBT.
据区块链侦探 ZachXBT 称,有两人因涉嫌针对已倒闭贸易公司 Genesis 债权人的价值 2.43 亿美元的加密货币盗窃案而被捕。
The arrests come after a lengthy investigation into the massive crypto theft, which was first reported in August last year. At the time, the creditor – who has not been publicly identified – was said to have fallen victim to a sophisticated social engineering scam.
此次逮捕是在对去年 8 月首次报道的大规模加密货币盗窃案进行了长时间调查之后进行的。当时,债权人(其身份尚未公开)据称已成为复杂社会工程骗局的受害者。
The scam reportedly involved the victim being contacted by a spoofed number that posed as a member of Google support. The caller then convinced the victim to reset their Gemini two-factor authentication (2FA) settings and send funds to a compromised wallet.
据报道,该骗局涉及通过冒充谷歌支持成员的欺骗号码联系受害者。然后,呼叫者说服受害者重置其 Gemini 双因素身份验证 (2FA) 设置,并将资金发送到受感染的钱包。
Transaction tracing analyzed by ZachXBT showed that the $243 million was split across multiple wallets before being sent to more than 15 exchanges. A cluster of the stolen funds also flowed into luxury goods brokers to purchase cars, watches, jewelry and designer clothes.
ZachXBT 分析的交易追踪显示,这 2.43 亿美元在发送到超过 15 个交易所之前被分配到多个钱包中。大量被盗资金还流入奢侈品经纪人,用于购买汽车、手表、珠宝和名牌服装。
The culprits were eventually tied to the loot after they accidentally shared an address that had been used to purchase luxury clothing. Several blockchain sleuths, including CFInvestigators, zeroshadow and Binance Security, worked together to use this information to freeze more than $9 million, with $500,000 being returned to the victim.
由于不小心分享了一个用于购买豪华服装的地址,罪魁祸首最终与赃物有关。包括 CFInvestigators、zeroshadow 和 Binance Security 在内的几家区块链侦探共同利用这些信息冻结了超过 900 万美元,其中 50 万美元返还给受害者。
7NewsMiami reported that the FBI raided a home in Miami on Thursday, while ZachXBT claimed that two of the cybercriminals were arrested, one of them in Los Angeles.
7NewsMiami 报道称,FBI 周四突袭了迈阿密的一处住宅,而 ZachXBT 则声称逮捕了两名网络犯罪分子,其中一人在洛杉矶。
Both the Miami and Los Angeles police departments did not immediately respond to CoinDesk's request for comment.
