A wallet connected to the Ronin bridge exploiter sent 2 Ethereum (ETH) — worth $3,586 — to Euler Finance (EUL) hacker on March 17, according to on-chain data.
The transaction was attached with a message urging the Euler Finance hacker to decrypt an encrypted message.
Polygon’s chief information security officer Mudit Gupta said the attached message was a phishing attempt. Gupta further warned the community not to ever enter their “private key on any website or tool.”
Blockchain security firm Hexagate corroborated Gupta’s view. The firm added, “the Ronin bridge attacker was trying to exploit the Euler attacker by luring him into running a vulnerable program.”
Meanwhile, this is not the first time both exploiters would interact with themselves. The Euler attacker sent 100 ETH to the Ronin Bridge hacker on March 17.
The Ronin Bridge exploit was linked to the infamous North Korean hacker group Lazarus.
