$81 million seems small potatoes to call it the worlds biggest Cyberheist.

By comparison: £650 million http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/11414191/Hacker...


You could arguably call the 2008 meltdown the largest cyberheist. I can't find that article again but gosh was it great, an interview with a programmer who said about CDS something like we fed offal into a grinder and got steak out.


Ok, we'll s/World’s Biggest/Bangladesh/ above if people will refrain from complaining that other Bangladesh cyber heists are thereby excluded.


I find it hard to believe that the biggest plaque in the high roller room was a miserly $20k.
