A 25-year-old businessman from mainland China reported being illegally detained in a Hung Hom hotel in Hong Kong and coerced into revealing his cryptocurrency password, leading to the theft of about $680,000 in digital assets. The attackers also stole 42 kilograms of silver, bringing the total losses to more than HK$6 million. According to initial reports, four suspects fled the scene before police arrived.
