A customer ” unreasonable is how CZ called cryptocurrency trader CoinMamba. The case began with a complaint made by the latter about a loss of funds resulting from a disclosure of an API key linked to 3Commas. As a solution, Binance decides to put his account “in off boarding mode (withdrawal only)”.
CoinMamba and its funds stolen from Binance
” Yes, @cz_binance just closed my Binance account because of my tweets. I do not know what to say. This is unacceptable and I’m sure most of you will agree with me on that. »
In the cryptosphere, there wouldn’t be a more active exchange boss than CZ on Twitter lately. If he’s not responding to Sam Bankman-Fried’s accusatory tweets, he’s playing commentary games with traders like CoinMamba.
Friday, December 9, CoinDesk reported that Binance proceeded to suspend the account of this classified client “ unreasonable “.
CoinMamba’s misadventure began on Tuesday, the day he found his funds in his Binance account missing. The origin of this evaporation: the leak of the API key associated with the 3Commas cryptocurrency trading platform. This prompted him to challenge Binance.
” Your account has been placed in withdrawal-only mode. This decision was taken in response to threats you made against our CS, and is not related to our dialogue on Twitter. We have assembled a team of over 20 agents to try and help you. We are sorry to come to this, but we wish you the best. »
By this message, Binance clarified that the account has not been locked. CoinMamba would have made a mistake in the use of adequate vocabulary by mentioning “close”.
The 3commas crypto trading robot hacked?
Yesterday December 10, U°Today issued a “hack alert” regarding the vulnerability of Binance accounts to the 3Commas API flaw. At least two traders lost their BNB holdings on the most popular crypto exchange.
The cryptocurrency investor followed by 280,000 followers CoinMamba is one of them.
According to Rodion Longa, founder of Worldpokerdeals, the other victim, he lost the equivalent of $450,000 in Binance USD (BUSD) stablecoins. However, it has been 11 months since he made use of the 3Commas API.
However, 3Commas did not recognize this attack, stating:
” Based on the information we have today, we have found that no encryption protocols have been compromised and no breaches of 3Commas account security databases have occurred. »
Aside from the two victims, other Twitter users have asked Binance to investigate the infamous 3Commas hack. CZ’s company seems to be in the best position to trace the origin of this disappearance of crypto funds.
