Azuki Beanz Phishing Site

After interacting with thwat they thought was the real site for the Azuki Beanz NFT project, Twitter user rijet found that their wallet had been emptied of two NFTs. Mfer #6135 and TheOtherSide #1981 were both taken. Mfer #6135 has been resold multiple times, while TheOtherSide #1981 is still remaining in the thief's wallet. While the theft has been reported to the NFT creators and OpenSea, no recovery has occurred.

This is a global/international case not involving a specific country.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]

"Winning this will surely make my day. My Mfer #6135 and The other side nft #1981 was just illegally transfered from my account. Reported this to opensea and the projects. Hopefully I hear back from them."

"I don't think you'll be getting those back. I got two NFTs stolen last month and still couldn't get it back. Even if @opensea tag the NFT as scam, the perpetrator can transfer to @LooksRareNFT worst marketplace ever. It promotes sale of stolen NFTs."
