The Incident: A Sophisticated Crypto Theft

John Doe (real name redacted) reached out to us after realizing that his cryptocurrency holdings had been illicitly transferred from his wallet without authorization. Upon investigation, we discovered that the attacker had employed Inferno Drainer, a malicious tool used to siphon funds from victims’ wallets. Not only did the stolen assets flow to the primary perpetrator, but a portion was also redirected to the developers of Inferno Drainer.

  • Date of Incident: January 17, 2025
  • Estimated Value Lost: $6,720.60
  • Stolen Crypto Assets: WOJAK Tokens: 6,604,674 | JASMY Tokens: 25,331

Tracing the Stolen Funds

Our team at CryptoRecovery.US specializes in blockchain forensics, meticulously analyzing on-chain transactions to follow the money trail. In John Doe’s case, we tracked the movement of his assets across multiple wallets and exchanges.

Key Findings:

  • The stolen assets were first sent to two suspect wallets before being quickly swapped for Ethereum (ETH) using decentralized exchanges.
  • The converted ETH was then distributed across multiple wallets, likely as an obfuscation technique to avoid detection.
  • A portion of the funds was routed to centralized exchanges, including ChangeNOW and Gate.io, where they could potentially be withdrawn as fiat currency.

Action Taken

With this intelligence, we compiled a detailed incident report and provided John Doe with all relevant transaction hashes, wallet addresses, and fund flow patterns. Our recommendations included:

  1. Submitting Reports to Exchanges — We advised John Doe to report the suspect wallets to the relevant exchanges, increasing the chances of freezing the illicit funds.
  2. Filing a Subpoena Request — To obtain additional transaction records and account holder information, we recommended legal action to subpoena the exchanges involved.
  3. Engaging Law Enforcement — With a well-documented evidence report, we assisted in presenting the case to authorities, expediting potential recovery.
