Phishing caused the loss of over 1 million Arbitrum tokens
Peckshield, a blockchain security company, reported on March 31 that over a million Arbitrum (ARB) tokens had been stolen by two malicious individuals.
The report says that an exploiter-connected wallet called “0xbd4E” bridged 933,375 ARB to 713 Ethereum (ETH), which is worth $1.27 million, and connected those tokens to the Ether mainnet.
The stolen 105,000 ARB tokens were transferred to two new addresses, “0xC4cf” and “0xB209,” from another wallet known as “0x7AFd.”
At the time of writing, it was not clear if the two wallets belonged to the same exploiter.
Meanwhile, the wallet “0xbd4E” was incorrectly identified as a “super airdrop hunter” by the on-chain investigator Lookonchain. Henry, a victim, claimed that the hacker took 7250 ARB tokens from them.
A fake Arbitrum Twitter account-promoting phishing website was reported by Certik, an additional blockchain security firm. On Arbitrum’s official Discord server, Certik claimed on March 25 that a fictitious phishing link had been posted.
Is Upbit accumulating ARB?
In the meantime, the web3 knowledge protocol 0xScope reported that a “massive” amount of ARB had been collected by an externally owned account (EOA) that was thought to be UPbit in the previous day.
The wallet currently possesses 59 million tokens worth $84.4 million, as indicated by on-chain data.
The Korean exchange has the second-most ARB tokens after Binance, if 0xScope is correct.
