Trust Wallet: Webverse Lianchuang's stolen $4 million in encrypted assets is due to social engineering attacks

Trust Wallet, a multi-chain non-custodial wallet, tweeted that the co-founder of the Web3 metaverse game engine "Webverse" previously stated that he did not disclose the mnemonic, and was stolen $4 million worth of encrypted theft just because he was photographed. After investigation, Trust Wallet believes that this is a security incident triggered by a social engineering attack involving an organized crime group from Rome, Italy, with known cases in Milan and Barcelona. In this case, user funds were initially in a multi-sig wallet, and a few weeks before they met with the criminal, the user was persuaded by the criminal to transfer the funds to a new non-multi-sig wallet, and the criminal subsequently shared An NDA PDF file and KYC information. After the user showed the proof of funds to the criminals and took a photo, the new wallet was emptied, so there was an argument that the funds were originally stolen through photos.
