Hackers steal $1.7 million worth of condoms and lubricants headed to Walmart after hijacking a trucking shipment from one of the biggest companies in sexual wellness – all by using a cybercriminal playbook turned supply-chain nightmare.
Here are the key findings:
- Attackers used a phishing email to compromise a legitimate trucking carrier and secure a shipment containing roughly 103,000 units of ONE Flex condoms and Move lubricant.
- The scammers then posed as freight brokers, hired legitimate truck drivers, and redirected the cargo to a warehouse in the Bronx.
- The shipment passed standard verification checks because the compromised carrier account appeared legitimate.
- The FBI recently warned that cyber-enabled cargo theft is surging, reporting a 60% increase since 2024 and record losses of $725 million last year
What initially sounded almost absurd – a cyber-enabled condom heist – turned into an elaborate and polished operation ending with FBI agents tracking the still missing shipments through the controversial Flock camera systems.
