Gate News update: On April 12, G.Love, a Philadelphia musician in the United States, said that while switching computers and reconfiguring his Ledger crypto wallet, he mistakenly downloaded a malicious counterfeit app from Apple’s App Store, resulting in about 5.92 BTC being fully transferred in a short period of time. Later, on-chain investigator ZachXBT said he had traced the flow of the stolen funds, and that the relevant assets were transferred via the deposit address of a certain CEX. ZachXBT also questioned Apple’s App Store review mechanism, saying that the platform’s process allows counterfeit apps to be listed, further amplifying risks to users’ asset security.
