Incident Details

The astrology-based Lucky Star Currency project rug-pulled for $1.1 million in October 2023. You’d think that might be the end of it, but on March 22, 2024, ownership of the project was transferred to a malicious smart contract that then drained tokens priced at almost $300,000 from those who still held them.You almost have to admire the tenacity.

Total loss estimated at $297,000.
