PANews reported on December 29th that, according to ZachXBT, a Canadian man named Haby (also known as Haverd) committed social engineering fraud over the past year by impersonating Coinbase customer service, stealing over $2 million and squandering it on expensive social media accounts, parties, and gambling. He boasted in a group chat about stealing 21,000 XRP (approximately $44,000), and multiple on-chain addresses were linked to at least five other Coinbase user asset thefts, totaling over $1.06 million. ZachXBT confirmed his identity by tracing his BTC address through wallet screenshots and on-chain fund flows, and also exposed his Telegram account and email information.
