South Korean prosecutors have lost $48 million worth of Bitcoin.
The authorities initially seized the BTC from criminals, but then became victims of phishing themselves. An employee conducting an audit accessed a fake website, and the passwords were stolen from a USB flash drive.
As a result, all the confiscated BTC, worth $48 million, ended up in the hands of other fraudsters, who have not yet been found.
