In a recent X post, a Binance user, Nakamao identified himself as a “victim of an undercover agent,” claiming to have lost $1 million due to a security breach. The user alleged that the exploit was carried out by a malicious Chrome plugin that used counter-trading techniques to drain his account.
Nakamao shared his harrowing experience of the hack and expressed his despair at Binance’s alleged lack of response. He stated, “During the whole process, I did not receive any security reminders from Binance.”
