Unauthorized USDT Transfer Via Unlimited Token Approval On BSC
The issue I experienced is as follows: my wallet on the BNB Smart Chain had an unlimited USDT (Binance-Peg BSC-USD) token approval granted to a third-party address that I did not knowingly authorize, and as a result approximately 288.3676699 USDT was transferred from my wallet without my consent; I did not initiate any transaction at that time, and no confirmation, OTP, or fingerprint authorization was involved, which indicates this was a case of unauthorized use of token approval rather than a direct compromise of my private key. I have attached a screenshot from BscScan for reference showing the affected wallet address and transaction hash (Wallet Address: 0x94312940fFc8786748FF4044E30017a4202551fC, Transaction Hash: 0x516a07939b67c9d8d7ade7e5e3834f95e7dc5713caefcfa82904b0f979cc05ad), along with the transaction details (Date & Time: January 29, 2026, 15:58:58 UTC; Amount: 288.3676699 USDT).
