The liquidators behind New Zealand crypto exchange Cryptopia recently opened up the claims process for the 940,000 affected users.
Emails were sent out to affected users with instructions to self identify and receive a claims number.
Many were skeptical when the email first came out as no official announcement on the website or social media accounts went before the emails. Liquidator Grant Thornton provided an update on their website a few days after the first email recipients received their emails on Twitter and on the liquidator's website.
If you did not receive an email, it may be in the spam folder or may not have been sent yet (940,000 emails takes time for email servers to send out without triggering any spam warnings on email servers.).
Be aware that the hackers behind the attack on Christchurch High Courts may be sending out their version of the claims email to steal passwords and KYC information. Be sure to check the email from address and make sure it's from no-reply@cryptopia.co.nz.
Here's a list of questions on the claims page you will be asked to identify yourself as the rightful owner of your account.
Many on social media are not sure where to get this information as it has been a while but assuming you have not been deleting emails, you should be able to find it with a simple search on your email account.
1- Search cryptopia
2- you will see all the emails you had with cryptopia
Full information on the claims process can be found on the liquidator's website.
