Polymarket 称黑客窃取了用户资金
Prediction market giant Polymarket confirmed that hackers stole funds from an unspecified number of users after a third-party breach. 预测市场巨头 Polymarket 证实，在发生第三方数据泄露事件后，黑客窃取了部分用户（具体人数未披露）的资金。
In an X post on Thursday, Polymarket said that a compromise at a third-party vendor allowed hackers to inject malicious code into its website “for some users.” The company said it has “contained” the incident and is now contacting the affected victims and “refunding them in full.” Polymarket 在周四的一篇 X 帖子中表示，由于第三方供应商遭到入侵，黑客得以向其网站注入恶意代码，影响了“部分用户”。该公司表示已“控制”了此次事件，目前正在联系受害者并“全额退款”。
As of Thursday afternoon, it’s unclear exactly what happened. When reached by TechCrunch, Polymarket spokesperson Connor Brandi confirmed that the breach led to users’ funds being stolen but declined to provide more information, and did not respond to specific questions about the incident. 截至周四下午，具体情况尚不清楚。当 TechCrunch 联系 Polymarket 时，其发言人 Connor Brandi 证实此次泄露导致用户资金被盗，但拒绝提供更多信息，也未回应有关该事件的具体问题。
Around the same time as the Polymarket post, blockchain monitoring firm PeckShield reported on X that a phishing campaign was targeting Polymarket users. According to PeckShield, hackers had stolen around $3 million worth of cryptocurrency. A blockchain analyst also reported similar losses and claimed that the funds were stolen from more than 11 victims. 在 Polymarket 发布声明前后，区块链监控公司 PeckShield 在 X 上报告称，一场针对 Polymarket 用户的网络钓鱼活动正在进行。据 PeckShield 称，黑客已窃取了价值约 300 万美元的加密货币。一位区块链分析师也报告了类似的损失，并声称这些资金是从超过 11 名受害者手中窃取的。
Polymarket offers users the possibility of being paid in cryptocurrency. In the last couple of days, two people on social media claimed to have had their Polymarket funds stolen. Polymarket 为用户提供以加密货币结算的选项。过去几天里，社交媒体上有两人声称自己在 Polymarket 上的资金被盗。
The hack is the latest blow for a company that has been in the headlines for the wrong reasons this week. On Sunday, an investigation revealed that Polymarket had paid online creators to post deceptive videos showing they won lucrative bets that were actually fake. In response, the company said it would audit its promotional content. 此次黑客攻击是对该公司的最新打击，该公司本周已因负面新闻频频登上头条。周日的一项调查显示，Polymarket 曾付费给网络创作者，让他们发布虚假视频，谎称自己赢得了高额赌注。对此，该公司表示将对其宣传内容进行审计。
