🎯🚨 Attention Crypto Enthusiasts! 🚨🎯
McDonald’s official Instagram has been hacked, propelling a new scam that has the crypto community shaking! Hackers exploited the platform to promote a Solana-based meme coin called Grimace, falsely claiming that the famous fast-food chain was the issuer. The result? A short-lived explosion in the token’s value, reaching a rapid peak before falling back just as quickly. The result: a haul of $700,000 for the cybercriminals!
As if that wasn’t enough, McDonald’s Marketing Director Guillaume Huin also had his X account (ex-Twitter) compromised, with a post encouraging users to share their Instagram handles in exchange for an official McDonald’s follow-back. A perfidious maneuver to extend the scam!
Although McDonald’s quickly regained control of its accounts, the damage was done. This incident reinforces fears around security in the crypto ecosystem and attracts the attention of global regulators, already on alert in the face of the resurgence of phishing attacks and scams on social networks.
