Few weeks ago, it has been reported that a popular making money online investment "cryptocurrency exchanges" were hacked. In which million of dollars were stolen and personal information of clients were compromised. 

Recent update came in this week via a newspaper in South Korea called Chosun Ilbo, reported that a spy agency in South Korea accused a group of hackers from North Korea were behind the said cyber attacks.

"The NIS found that the malware used in hacking the exchanges was made with the same method as malware used in hacking Sony Pictures and the central bank of Bangladesh in 2014 and 2016 respectively, the Chosun Ilbo reported."

If these were true, this would serve us a lesson. Not to immediately trust by putting our money into investment no matter what it is. We people, tend to rely always without careful research how reliable this type of investment is.

It's because we are greedy of money. We always wanted to be rich without knowing it will lead us to danger. I hope our authorities will be able to recover those money that was stolen and more importantly the personal information of their clients.
