\"Fake<\/p>\n

A Fake Ledger Live app on Apple\u2019s store is tied to $9.5 million in crypto thefts, as ZachXBT links over 50 victims\u2019 funds to a KuCoin-linked mixer and questions Apple\u2019s liability.<\/p>\n

Onchain investigator ZachXBT said a fake Ledger Live app listed on Apple\u2019s App Store was tied to about $9.5 million in crypto stolen from more than 50 suspected victims between April 7 and 13.<\/p>\n

In a Tuesday Telegram post<\/a>, ZachXBT said the alleged thefts affected users across Bitcoin, Solana, Tron, XRP Ledger and Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible networks. He claimed the stolen funds were laundered through over 150 KuCoin deposit addresses allegedly tied to AudiA6, which he described as a centralized mixing service.\u00a0<\/p>\n

ZachXBT said the fake app was removed by Apple on April 13 and identified three seven-figure losses among the largest known cases. He said one victim lost about $1.95 million in Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>), staked Ether (stETH) and Ether (ETH<\/a>), another lost $3.23 million in USDt (USDT<\/a>) on April 9, and a third victim lost about $2 million in USDC (USDC<\/a>) on April 11.<\/p>\n
