NGO Founder VeryDarkMan Recovers N78 Million After N160 Million Cyberattack, Suspects Inside Job


 Popular Nigerian philanthropist and NGO founder, VeryDarkMan, has provided an update on the recent cyberattack that resulted in the theft of N160 million from his organization's website. In a video shared on his Instagram page, VeryDarkMan expressed gratitude to the public for their support and well wishes following the incident. He revealed that his team has successfully recovered N78 million of the stolen funds.

VeryDarkMan shared that the investigation has led them to believe that the cyberattack may have been an "inside job." He stated that a suspect has been apprehended and has confessed that the individual responsible for the theft has fled to Ghana. VeryDarkMan confirmed that his team will be traveling to Ghana soon to continue their investigation and pursue the recovery of the remaining stolen funds.


The incident, which targeted the NGO's website, known as MVOl, has prompted a thorough security review. A detailed analysis of the website revealed numerous security threats and a staggering 682 cyberattacks prior to the successful theft. This discovery underscores the critical importance of robust cybersecurity measures for organizations, particularly those handling significant financial transactions.

VeryDarkMan's update provides a glimmer of hope for the full recovery of the stolen funds while highlighting the serious threat of cybercrime and the need for increased vigilance and proactive security measures to protect against such attacks.
