A tracked hacker from Morocco for a flight of 210 million euros

After investigations carried out in Morocco, in the United Arab Emirates and South Korea for three years, the police of the Cyber ​​Anti-Crime Office managed to arrest a young hacker suspected of having stolen the equivalent of 210 million euros in cryptocurrencies.

It took three years of investigation so that the magistrates and investigators manage to challenge a 24-year-old hacker, suspected of having hacked the South Korean platform of Cryptomonnaies Coinrail in 2018 and having stolen it for the equivalent of 210 million euros. His arrest took place last Tuesday at a French airport. The suspect returned from a brief stay in Saint-Barthélemy and had been in the sights of the investigators for three years. The other index that has enabled investigators to unmask him is the appearance of his name among other names in a similar case, this time targeting the Gatehub platform.
