A victim lost 12,083 spWETH tokens (~$32.4 million) after signing a malicious transaction stemming from someone using wallet drainer software. These drainers are "scam-as-a-service" products, where the drainer creators allow others to operate the drainer software in exchange for a 20% cut of stolen funds.

The victim wallet sent a message to the thief, offering "a peaceful resolution to this situation" in which the thief could keep 20% of the total amount taken (around $6.5 million).
