As previously announced, on March 7th, there was a large-scale attempt to manipulate and steal funds on Binance, which was ultimately unsuccessful. We would like to remind the community that our system was not compromised during this event and no unauthorized data was accessed. The attack was the result of an extended phishing operation, targeting users by creating fraudulent reproductions of our website in order to gather users’ login credentials.

Since launching the Binance Hacker Bounty, we’ve gathered a lot of information regarding this event. Among the information that we have collected, there are some details that we believe will be beneficial to provide publicly. We hope that, with the additional information, our community will be able to assist even further in our search for the perpetrator(s).

Given the scale of the operation, we believe this may be the work of a group rather than an individual, but we certainly aren’t ruling out the possibility.

Remember:

• For any specific information provided that leads to the legal arrest of the attackers, in any jurisdiction, will be paid on a first-come, first-serve basis, with the maximum reward being an equivalent of $250,000 USD in BNB (conversion rate determined at time of payment).
• If you believe you have useful information to provide, please submit a detailed report to [email protected], as well as your local law enforcement agency.
• If your local laws allow, you may remain anonymous.
• If there are multiple sources of different information that, combined, results in an arrest, the reward may be split accordingly. Binance reserves any and all rights to split the bounty, solely at our own discretion.
