Mysterious hacker returns 20m in crypto-currencies after 'stealing' it from Chinese trading platform dForce
Mysterious hacker has reportedly returned £20million worth of stolen funds back to a Chinese crypto-currency exchange platform dForce.
According to the founder of dForce, the sum of $25million (£20million) funds in a variety of crypto-currencies was illegally drained from the trading site on Sunday.
The mysterious web attacker returned all the crypto money two days after he stole it.
The platform founder Mindao Yang wrote a blog post shortly after the attack took place on April 19.
He explained that the attacker was able to withdraw funds by manipulating the system to falsely increase the number of crypto-currencies in their account and draining it all before the balance is updated, according to an analysis from PeckShield.
