Cybercriminals are always on the lookout for easy prey, and this time around a Fusion Swap Wallet was their target. Fusion Foundation is counting losses after tokens were stolen. Per a blog post<\/a><\/strong> on its site, the cybercriminals gained access to the wallet after they got hold of its private keys.<\/p>\n The private keys granted the criminals access to the wallet leading to them siphoning out 3.3 million worth of ERC20 FSN tokens and 10 million native FSN tokens. The latter brought the loss to around $6.4 million at the current figures. According to the announcement from Fusion Foundation, only the Fusion swap wallet was affected. The above was followed by an unusual wash trading process which resulted in some of the tokens getting traded on several exchanges. The cybercriminals<\/a> <\/strong>used Hobit and Bitmax to sale the coins. Fusion said;<\/p>\n “After stealing the tokens, the cybercriminals proceeded to initiate abnormal wash trading transactions and sold the tokens.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
