WhiteArmor Demands $15M in Bitcoin from Crypto Casino Gamdom After Data Breach

Cyber extortion group WhiteArmor has demanded a $15 million ransom in Bitcoin from crypto casino Gamdom, claiming to hold a compromised database of over 15.42 million user accounts. Gamdom founder Felix Römer disputed the scale of the intrusion, asserting the breach affected only a few hundred accounts and excluded identity verification files. The extortion follows an October 13 hot wallet exploit that drained an estimated $3 million to $4.2 million from Gamdom, with stolen funds subsequently traced through laundering service FreedomXMR.
