A Gate user claims $1.7M was stolen from their exchange account!
👀 According to the user, the account was protected with 2FA (phone + Google Authenticator + email), yet they later discovered password and security settings had been reset, the account email changed, and all funds withdrawn.
📩 Gate says its preliminary investigation found no platform vulnerability and believes this was an isolated case, likely caused by the user's own data being compromised. The exchange says the investigation is ongoing.
Meanwhile, crypto X is debating what actually happened—from a hacked email account to the possible use of AI deepfakes during identity verification.
For now, it's one person's account versus the exchange's explanation, so it's worth waiting for the full investigation before drawing conclusions.
