ZachXBT recently uncovered a massive scam in the cryptocurrency space... it is a heinous operation.
A fake application named Ledger Live on the Apple App Store has been linked to the theft of $9.5 million from over 50 victims between April 7 and 13.
๐ Affected networks: Bitcoin, Ethereum (EVM), Tron, Solana, and XRP
Users downloaded a malicious app impersonating Ledger Live... and unknowingly granted access to their digital wallets.
Funds were transferred through more than 150 deposit addresses on the KuCoin platform, associated with AudiA6, a well-known money laundering service with high fees.
Loss details:
April 9: $3.23 million stolen (USDT)
April 11: $2.07 million stolen (USDC)
April 8: $1.95 million stolen (BTC + ETH + stETH)
The three largest victims alone lost amounts totaling seven figures each.
โ ๏ธ The fake app has been removed, but the damage has already been done.
๐ญ This raises serious questions:
How did a fake wallet app pass App Store review?
Could this lead to legal action against Apple?
This is one of the largest cryptocurrency thefts linked to the App Store in recent months. Be careful.$BTC
