23pds, the Chief Information Security Officer of SlowMist, stated in a post that yesterday the Fantom Foundation reported being hacked. Based on our analysis of the on-chain transfer method and our past emergency experience, it is likely that the private key was stolen.

It may have been due to phishing or social engineering attacks on their foundation or employees, running malicious Trojan files, resulting in the theft of some wallet private keys. Previously, some wallets of the Fantom Foundation were attacked and hackers profited by exploiting a Chrome zero-day vulnerability.
