Hacker Deposits 229.72 ETH, Valued at $445,000, from Coldcard Attack Involving Approximately 30 BTC into Duel.comcasino

Odaily News: According to monitoring by Galaxy's Head of Research, a victim's Coldcard wallet was compromised in a hacker attack involving nearly 30 BTC, of which 17 BTC were swapped for ETH via THORChain and subsequently deposited into Duel.comcasino. The victim and a researcher have sent emails to all known addresses associated with Duel.comcasino, requesting that the relevant funds be frozen, and provided all transaction and deposit information. The hacker deposited 229.72497255 ETH, valued at $445,000, into Duel.comcasino—funds originating from the Coldcard attack involving approximately 30 BTC. The victim stated that Duel.comcasino responded by saying that the police would need to contact their team. Duel.comcasino's anti-money laundering policy claims it enforces Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures and complies with all applicable laws. Duel.comcasino was notified within minutes of the deposit being completed. To date, Duel.comcasino has not frozen the relevant funds. Since most of the Western world had already passed midnight at the time of the incident, police reports cannot be filed until at least Monday. If Duel.comcasino fails to freeze the funds, the victim will pursue legal action against them. Duel.comcasino's X account has been suspended, and Galaxy's Head of Research has also flagged individuals on X suspected of being associated with the platform, including team members and dealers: @korraflow, @atrois7, @MiaMalkova.
