Malone Lam, one of the masterminds behind the insane $241,000,000 crypto heist. Malone and his friends targeted a high profile bitcoin investor using social engineering. They first appeared to the victim as Googles support, using a spoofed number and using an immediate fear manipulation tactic making the victim act immediately. The victim handed over access to his Gmail through which they found the wallet he uses. Later on they contacted the guy again, this time as Geminie support(The Wallet the victim uses). They convinced him that his account was under attack and he is at risk of losing his assets. Being under pressure the victim complied with the scammers, they persuaded him into installing “Any Desk” a remote control program. Once installed they gained full access to the victims PC and it was game over- with only a few clicks the private keys were copied into their own computer and they gained full access to all the funds.
Lamone Lam then went on a spending spree. He bought a 12 million dollar mansion alongside with 31 luxury cars worth tens of millions of dollars.
He also went to clubs and parties in which he spent crazy amounts, sometimes the bill would be over 400,000$ a night. He would also buy random girls at the club hand bags worth tens of thousands of dollars. This created massive attention and the investigations were conducted, a while after Malone Lam was arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit theft and money laundering. He faces up to 20 years in prison and fines up to $250,000
Note: Malone still has access to the funds so he’ll be walking out with all the money when he’s released.
**The crazy part is that all of that(the scam) was done on livestream on discord.
