🚨 BINANCE’S $6.3 BILLION HACK STARTED WITH A FAKE JOB INTERVIEW!
Attackers reportedly posed as recruiters, tricked an engineer into downloading malware, then used stolen credentials and an internal AI tool to access two wallet engineers’ computers.
On October 29, they exploited Ethereum’s EIP-7702 feature to compromise a hot wallet. Containment took around 4 hours.
The latest:
- $2.85B reportedly frozen.
- 98% of affected tokens replenished using company funds.
- Binance says users won't bear the losses.
- FBI points to North Korea.
One fake interview. A massive security crisis. This is how dangerous social engineering can be!
