It was nothing more than a phishing attack on the dumber users of Binance, and it worked flawlessly. It was done to create a massive coin pump, where the hackers then would withdraw their Bitcoins, but failed.

Binance's security mechanism noticed malicious activity, and halted all withdrawals, where instead of the hackers making loads of money, they lost their coins because of how they couldn't withdraw anymore.

People always need to have 2FA active, but the most important aspect is that you don't click on links somewhere on the internet in order to visit a certain site. Always manually type your URL, which is a must.

Don't even bookmark anything. Type URL, check if it's correct, then proceed to the site. All this is common sense stuff.
