ក្រុមហ៊ុនសន្តិសុខ Blockchain Peckshield រាយការណ៍ that roughly $8 million of BitKeep users’ funds were stolen via a hacked APK version of the crypto wallet.
The BitKeep team បានបញ្ជាក់ the exploit on its official Telegram account and said the hackers hijacked some APK package downloads, which resulted in the loss of funds for its users.
The crypto firm added that users whose funds were stolen had downloaded an unknown version of its application. BitKeep wrote that users should transfer their funds to wallets downloaded from official sources like Google Play Store and App store.
BitKeep further recommended that its users create new wallet addresses as the hackers might still have access to the ones made via the compromised APK. The team asked affected users to submit their details to a Google ទម្រង់បែបបទ, adding that it would make full compensation if the theft was the platform’s fault.
BitKeep បាននិយាយថា: the hacker had transferred most of the funds to a wallet address on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). The crypto firm added that it is looking for help in freezing the hacker’s address and retrieving the stolen funds.
Peckshield reported that the assets stolen included 4373 BNB (២១ លានដុល្លារ), ៨៧០ លានដុល្លារ USDT, $ 196,000 DAIនិង 1233.21 សាកលវិទ្យាល័យ ETH (៤ លានដុល្លារ)។
