Zimbabwe's largest crypto exchange hacked

Golix representatives reported that over the past three weeks, customer accounts have been compromised through a series of hacker attacks, Pindula News writes. The total value of the cryptocurrency fell by as much as $25 billion in one day.

Platform representatives also reported that user capital was not withdrawn outside the exchange, but could be converted into other types of cryptocurrencies.

Before this, clients reported that their accounts had been changed. Moreover, user funds were transferred either to another digital currency or were withdrawn from the account in order to buy a new cryptocurrency. Golix support service sees the reason for this activity in the fact that the accounts were hacked by unknown hackers.

Currently, a specially created technical team is working on solving the problem, which has already done everything possible to make as many changes as possible to prevent the theft of capital from customer accounts.

Golix representatives made a number of recommendations for their users: change account and email passwords, enable two-factor authentication and advised how to behave online so as not to fall into the hands of Internet scammers.
