North Korean Hackers' Snatch $615MN from Gamers
Axie Infinity - the now infamous game in which players can earn crypto - has reportedly been raided by the hacker group Lazarus to the tune of $615 million.
The group is allegedly employed by North Korea, and has been accused of targeting Axie Infinity’s player database.
"Through our investigations we were able to confirm Lazarus Group and APT38, cyber actors associated with [North Korea], are responsible for the theft," the FBI said in a statement.
Lazarus originally grabbed attention back in 2014, when it 'hacked' Sony Pictures ahead of a comedy release about North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.
