[link to www.blockchain.com (secure)] I'm hearing other high profile twitter accounts were hacked as well. I'm seeing other blue checkmarks trying to claim it's real and that they received money back, they're likely hacked bots helping pump up the scam. |

(OP) Senior Forum Moderator 07/15/2020 04:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I remember that scam happening before, from some years back. I hope this reminds folk not to fall for that sort of pipe dream! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68147333 It's been going on non-stop, but until now it's been fake bot accounts set up to look like Musk's account. Some were even hacked blue checkmark "verified" accounts, and amazingly twitter didn't demand re-verification before changing the screen name. Now they've stepped up to hacking major accounts like Elon Musk and Bill Gates. |
