Cuban shared on X that a caller, impersonating a Google employee, tricked him into revealing account information by claiming there was an intruder and spoofing Googleโs recovery methods.

The crypto community sent supportive messages, while some speculated about the volume of missed emails. Kraken's CSO, Nick Percoco, joked about the potential flood of unread messages Cuban would face once he regained access.

Amidst the chaos, some users questioned the security of Cubanโs X account, suggesting that it might also be compromised.
