As we mentioned last week, the largest Silk Road 2.0 online drug market παραβιάστηκε από hackers που άδειασαν τα “ταμεία του.” Έτσι Bitcoins, αξίας περίπου 2,5 εκατομμυρίων δολαρίων, έκαναν φτερά. Οι “πελάτες” της διάσημης ναρκοαγοράς, προφανώς, είναι πολύ δυσαρεστημένοι με το γεγονός, δεδομένου ότι η ιστοσελίδα expressly refused to take action against a known bug that ultimately led to the hacking.
Today Admin του Silk Road 2.0, Defcon σαν φερέγγυος “καταστηματάρχης” υποσχέθηκε ότι θα επιστρέψει τα 4.474 Bitcoins που έχουν κλαπεί, δηλώνοντας ότι το προσωπικό δεν θα αμείβετε μέχρι να επιστραφούν τα χρήματα στους “πελάτες.”
"Silk Road is not a name that will be easily forgotten, and we will fight until we prevail as the strongest community in darknet. "We are committed to returning your Bitcoins even if it takes a year," Defcon told Reddit.
Disgruntled customers claim that this could all be coming from the admins themselves, which Defcon dismissed. “We are investigating the evidence of the attack, and there is absolutely no indication that any member of staff was involved. We will post more information when we have accurate data.”
