ME News report: On April 2 (UTC+8), the U.S. Connecticut Federal Prosecutor’s Office announced that it had recovered and seized more than $600,000 in cryptocurrency. Previously, a Ledger hardware wallet user was targeted by a phishing scam: letters impersonating “Ledger Security and Compliance” lured the user into carrying out a so-called security check, resulting in the theft of approximately $234,000 in crypto assets. The FBI and state police tracked the flow of the funds, successfully seized about $600,000 worth of USDT, and filed a civil forfeiture lawsuit, alleging that the funds’ source involved wire fraud and money laundering. It is reported that this is one of a series of phishing incidents targeting hardware wallet users. The scammers used physical mailed letters bearing company logos, holograms, and QR codes to increase the credibility of the fraud. Similar incidents have previously affected manufacturers including Ledger and Trezor, accompanied by data breaches and compromises of third-party services.

Iranian sources say the United States has agreed to unfreeze Iranian assets held in foreign banks to demonstrate goodwill in negotiations, but the U.S. denies this. The unfreezing of funds concerns the security of the Strait of Hormuz, and the U.S. only permits their use for humanitarian purposes.
