Polymarket Frontend Compromise: $800K+ Drained

Polymarket's frontend is reportedly compromised, with users reporting unauthorized withdrawals totaling over $1.4M across known cases. Users are urged not to connect wallets or sign anything on the site.

What we know

Multiple sources sounded the alarm on a Polymarket security incident. An account on X reported one user lost $800K and a friend lost $600K, urging people not to interact with the site. Another account on X amplified the AggrNews alert from Polymarket's Discord. In the alpha degens feed, another account on X posted two warnings urging users to pause, not sign anything, and wait for official confirmation before taking any action. No official statement from Polymarket was noted in the window. Separately, @TheBlockCo had just reported Polymarket's US political markets hit $18.6M in daily volume ahead of the midterms — making the timing especially damaging.
