According to PANews, at 6:24 pm ET on September 24, the @OpenAINewsroom account with nearly 54,000 followers posted a now-deleted post promoting the "OPENAI" token.

The post stated that "all OpenAI users are eligible for the initial supply of OPENAI" and included a link to a fake version of the OpenAI website. The fake post is now displayed as "unavailable".

The account was reportedly launched earlier this month.
