Massive Heist in EVE Online Results in Stolen Assets and Currency Worth Thousands

Players of the game Eve Online took advantage of the game's corporate voting system to give themselves full control of an in-game corporation and an estimated $22,000 of in-game assets, all under the noses of absent corporate leadership. The heist relied heavily on a previous acquisition of 1,000 ownership shares, allowing the players to meet the 5% threshold to trigger the vote in the first place. The duo was able to drain the corporation wallet of 130 Billion ISK and gain control of ships and other in-game assets worth over 2 trillion more ISK.
