Also, probably this should have been posted in the Press section of the forum. Anyway, at least he credited the author of the aritcle. Maybe it would have been better if this was posted on the day the article was released. Another point is that this article has no point here, since there is nothing to be discussed aside from the article posted, such activity could have been done in the article itself.
OP is not updated for posting this article up and maybe he's on shock for seeing a huge loss by this scamming event. And I would love to agree with you that this topic should be moved there so that people who seeks proper articles on this kind of scenario can easily find and make this place clean for unrelated topic since we are at the service announcement section.
