Another friend got significantly hacked in the past week. They even moved moneynout of his bank account.

Pro-tip. Stop connecting to public WiFi, especially at airports.

I have been hacked at an airport as well. I wonder why it's the worst there?

I imagine unsuspecting travellers think "airport WiFi, must be fine".

Another friend had a hot wallet on his laptop and did the same. Hundreds of thousands in crypto taken from him 😭

Proprotip: use a VPN

How does it prevent you from getting hacked?

By not announcing to the attackers observing the traffic on the same network everything that you are doing.

You can't easily attack that which you can't see/don't know exists.

What part of the world was he in?

Hmm, not actually sure. He's UK based, but I suspect this happened abroad.
