❗️ MicroStrategy’s X account hacked, shilling Ethereum token phishing scam ❗️
🧑💻 Hackers took over the official MicroStrategy X account, posting a series of malicious links to a fake airdrop for a so-called Ethereum-based MSTR token.
Business intelligence firm MicroStrategy’s X account has been hacked, posting malicious links to a fake airdrop of a so-called “official” Ethereum-based MSTR token.
💸 A user clicking on the link is directed to a copycat MicroStrategy webpage that directs them to connect a wallet and claim the fake MSTR airdrop. Once users accept a series of permissions in their Web3 wallet, it is understood that the attackers can automatically drain the tokens out of the user’s wallet.
According to independent blockchain sleuth ZachXBT and anti-scam platform Scam Sniffer, losses incurred from the scam have already tallied over $440,000.
