According to the story above, Alex is only in contact stage with the alleged or to-be partners. What really happened, did he disclose his private details at the course of the meeting?
Nope, Alexander Choi didn't disclose anything to the scammers during the call, Alexander is somewhat experienced in the industry, so he didn't do that. I have read from a few sources about this case and this is a very sophisticated scam, i believe the scammers are exploiting some form of vulnerability in video conferencing apps/platforms.
The scammers host the meeting and forward the link to their potential victims, i think that is where the scam happens. There is not so much information on what the malware is right now and what vulberability they are exploiting. But don't keep a huge amount of assets in a hot wallet like Alex did, and if you are not the host of a meeting in any of these third party apps, then you have to ne suspicious of it, be careful, there might just be a malware lurking in there.
