MoneyTaker operated silently for years without being caught stealing millions from US and Russian banks.

Conflating physical bank heists made by desperate people and sophisticated cybercrime is disingenuous.

No. Most of it never went out, and much of what did was recovered.

"The Federal Reserve Bank of New York blocked the remaining thirty transactions, amounting to $850 million, due to suspicions raised by a misspelled instruction. All the money transferred to Sri Lanka has since been recovered. However, as of 2018 only around $18 million of the $81 million transferred to the Philippines has been recovered."
