A community user said 3.7 BNB was transferred out of a secondary wallet after the user connected to free Wi-Fi at Singapore airport, according to ChainCatcher. The user said the wallet had shown no transaction activity for several months before the funds were moved, and warned others against casually using public Wi-Fi networks. Binance founder Changpeng Zhao responded that he has long advised people not to connect to Wi-Fi, especially public Wi-Fi, but questioned whether merely connecting to Wi-Fi would be enough to result in a wallet theft. He asked whether there had been any other actions in between. The report did not provide additional technical details about how the transfer happened.
