1/ An investigation into the YouTuber turned phishing scammer Blue (Jack) who has worked with Monkey Drainer and other drainer services to steal more than $1.5m



2/ Before Blue (Jack) began scamming in 2021 he amassed an audience of more than 122k subscribers by uploading gaming and trolling videos to YT.



3/ A leaked post from Blue’s personal Snapchat shows the ENS address cool-breeze.eth which purchased BAYC 8668 in October 2022.

4/ Looking at the funding of this address is where things get interesting.

I observed inflows to cool-breeze.eth of more than 85 ETH (~1/3 of the stolen funds) directly from 8+ addresses involved with Monkey Drainer phishing scams.

Monkey is best known to have stolen $24m.

5/ On Discord Blue flexed his BAYC purchase and would share his methods scamming.

The second and third screenshot is from an internal Discord server where Blue would instruct his workers.



6/ Unfortunately Blue was robbed of his BAYC in late 2022 after allegedly scamming Monkey out of his cut from a phishing scam.

7/ This did not deter Blue as he soon began scamming again shortly after this setback with new ENS addresses.

The stolen funds have been spent on luxury watch, car, shoes, Roblox items and gambling on Stake.

All this was flexed from his personal Snapchat.



8/ Blue specializes in spamming on Twitter with verified accounts and two of his recent thefts include stolen assets from @g13m and @ystrickler while working with two different drainers. https://t.co/48ruH7mC9v




9/ July 3, 2023 @g13m was phished for 61.5 ETH and 93.3K USDT (~$213k) by a fake Doodles site.

Blue received 49 ETH and 74K USDT for himself after the drainer fee.

Blue’s address

10/ After Blue commissioned a video with his old BAYC and his other alias making fun of LoveMake losing his funds.
11/ Another recent theft includes yancey.eth who had a Milady & Squiggle phished (~12 ETH)

After the drainer fee Blue received 10.3 ETH to his ENS purplelobster.eth

Blue moved the stolen funds to 0xad where $300k currently sits
0xad83776f97d956e4c9b33fd180e43910a8cb7db4



12/ It’s disgusting to see these phishing scammers show zero remorse and spend the funds on tasteless items.

Additional information of Blue (Jack) has been shared with multiple of his victims to eventually help bring legal action.

In case you are curious how John Daghita (Lick) was able to steal $40M+ from US government seizure addresses.

John’s dad owns CMDSS, which currently has an active IT government contract in Virginia.

CMMDS was awarded a contract to assist the USMS in managing/disposing of seized/forfeited crypto assets.

It still remains unclear at this point how John obtained access from his dad.Image
Image
Image
Update: The CMDSS company X account, website, & LinkedIn were all just deactivated Image

Update: John Daghita (Lick) began trolling again on Telegram shortly after my post Image

1/ Meet the threat actor John (Lick), who was caught flexing $23M in a wallet address directly tied to $90M+ in suspected thefts from the US Government in 2024 and multiple other unidentified victims from Nov 2025 to Dec 2025. Image
Image
Image
2/ Earlier today John got into a heated argument with another threat actor known as Dritan Kapplani Jr. in a group chat to see who had more funds in crypto wallets.

In 'The Com' this is known as a band for band (b4b).

However the entire interaction was fully recorded.

Image
3/ In part 1 of the recording Dritan mocks John however John screenshares Exodus Wallet which shows the Tron address below with $2.3M:

1/ Meet Haby (Havard), a Canadian threat actor who has stolen $2M+ via Coinbase support impersonation social engineering scams in the past year blowing the funds on rare social media usernames, bottle service, & gambling. Image
Image
2/ On Dec 30, 2024 Haby posted a screenshot in a group chat showing off a 21K XRP ($44K) theft from a Coinbase user.

Image
3/ On Jan 3, 2025 Haby posted a screenshot from his Exodus wallet showing his Telegram & IG accounts.

I matched up the historical balances to the screenshot and found the XRP address linked to two other Coinbase user thefts for ~$500K total.

1/ A video went viral on YT this week after a US based victim lost $3.05M (1.2M XRP) from their Ellipal wallet.

Here’s the tracing of where the stolen funds ended up and the biggest takeaways for similar thefts. Image
2/ Although the victim did not directly share the theft address after watching the video I found it by reviewing the date and amount.

r3cf5mgj5qEcj9n4Th28Es7NVRnXGJjkzc

The victim seems inexperienced and does not provide enough details to determine how the Ellipal wallet became compromised besides it being user error.
3/ The attacker created 120+ Ripple -> Tron orders via Bridgers on Oct 12, 2025.

On block explorers the transactions show as Binance since Bridgers (formerly SWFT) uses them for liquidity. Image

1/ An investigation into how I identified one of suspects tied to the $28M Bittensor hack from 2024 by identifying anime NFT wash trades linked to a former employee and earned a whitehat bounty for my efforts. Image
Image
2/ 32 $TAO holders experienced unauthorized transfers in excess of $28M from May to July 2024 and the Bittensor network was temporarily halted on July 2, 2024.

A post-mortem published by the team revealed the thefts were the result of a supply chain attack after a malicious PyPi package was uploaded in late May 2024

Victims who downloaded the package and performed specific operations accidentally compromised private keys.Image
3/ I began tracing the stolen funds from two initial theft addresses, TAO was bridged to Ethereum via Bittensor native bridge, and then transferred to instant exchanges where the attackers swapped to XMR.

Victims:
$400K: 5ENiTXL63DRMKytjaDRBLnorwd6qURKcCVgsgpu8UQxgptQN
$13M: 5DnXm2tBGAD57ySJv5SfpTfLcsQbSKKp6xZKFWABw3cYUgqgImage

1/ An unnamed source recently compromised a DPRK IT worker device which provided insights into how a small team of five ITWs operated 30+ fake identities with government IDs and purchased Upwork/LinkedIn accounts to obtain developer jobs at projects. Image
Image
2/ An export of their Google Drive, Chrome profiles, and screenshots from their devices was obtained.

Google products were extensively used by them to organize their team’s schedules, tasks, and budgets with communications primarily in English. Image
3/ Another spreadsheet shows weekly reports for team members from 2025 which provides insight into how they operate and what they think about.

“I can't understand job requirement, and don't know what I need to do”

“Solution / fix: Put enough efforts in heart” Image
