Hackers Stole Florinel Coman’s Testimonial: How?
Qatar’s Al Gharafa club had been negotiating the transfer of Florinel Coman, who plays for Romania’s FCSB team. On July 8, Al Gharafa finalized the transfer and had the 26-year-old left winger sign a 3-year contract, but Al Gharafa made a huge mistake.
According to Milliyet, Vietnamese hackers hacked FCSB’s e-mail account and sent their bank and billing information to Al Gharafa. Without realizing the situation, the Qatari team sent 5 million 250 thousand euros, the transfer fee of the footballer, to the thieves’ account.
FCSB contacted Al Gharafa after realizing the incident, but the Qatari club replied: “The information sent to us belongs to the Vietnamese account. We have sent the money’. The Romanian club then filed a complaint with FIFA for the payment of the transfer fee with interest for the delay.
