The fraudsters operated based on the Ethereum blockchain.

According to Cybers, records were recorded for 150,000 addresses and 800,000 fraud cases. The main loophole of blockchain was ease of access.

The scammers paid victims in small amounts totaling more than $100,000. Access control violations accounted for 67 incidents worth $1.9 billion. Fraudsters also used smart contract vulnerabilities in 98 incidents worth $456.8 million.

Losses of cryptocurrency users to fraudsters increased in 2024. Among the exchanges scammed are DMM exchange and WazirX. Scammers scammed WazirX out of $235 million and the DMM exchange lost $305 million. Cyber ​​attackers gained access to the DMM exchange and compromised private keys in the platform’s Bitcoin hot wallet.

BingX lost $52 million to fraudsters when they accessed the exchange’s hot wallets and transferred funds through other addresses.

Despite security concerns, recovery attempts were made to allow victims to secure some of their funds. About $1.3 billion was recovered and returned to holders in 2024.

In the first quarter of 2024, 53 cases were reported, resulting in a loss of approximately $760 million in the third quarter, the largest loss of 2024. The last quarter had the lowest number of cases and losses.
