Another case of natural selection at work in the modern age. Those dumb/greedy enough to be taken in by this scam lose and those who understand modern societies vulnerabilities profit.

I'd say it shows the pitfalls of social media as a whole and how crypto currencies can be used to facilitate crime.

Fascinating story. Its believed it was written to check for this random domain name being registered in an attempt to thwart security researchers. When they look at malware they do it in a sandboxed environment not connected to the internet but they spoof the existence of any website the malware connects to. So its suspected they checked for this random domain nobody would normally think to register because in a sandbox it would show as registered then the malware does nothing. This researcher found a reference to this domain when looking at this malware registered it to see what would happen and poof now the malware thinks every machine is a security researchers sandbox and won't actually do its thing


nice! thanks! I remember reading something like that a a while ago. I haven't seen Emotet stop working since I registered Emotet.com lol also own Riskwares.com

My girl was tricked by something like this via twitter. it said it would double whatever XRP she sent. website was XrpGets.com. She said it looked legit. I wish she would have asked me first. it was via a legit looking Twitter account that a member of Ripple seemed to be connected with.

This is a major black eye for both Twitter and Bitcoin. The fact so many top users were able to be hacked on Twitter, accounts that should have extreme security, is a really bad look for their security.

All the suckers that sent Bitcoin in this scam, that money is gone for good. Unlike traditional payment methods there is no refund mechanism.

The guy might walk away with a few hundred thousand, and it will likely cost Twitter billions in market cap.

Missed opportunity to short Twitter. I don't even know if it's traded but I'd short it. Lol

It’s the old Nigerian scam.

bitcoin, is the scam...that has enabled all the other similar scams
untraceable revenue, who knew
all the time before btc, rich folks were trying to hide assets overseas, in trusts and thru other devious means

and don't forget about the the old enron scam, which was before any nigerian could scam anybody
or the scam that Native Americans fell for, when they got moved to reservations

usa getting scammed now, as the prez wants all covid data from hospitals, sent to WH, instead of to CDC, as before.
you think folks was confused before.... just wait and see what's next.

better turn the fan off, cuz :poop: is about to hit it, big time!

as for twit, you're right
they showed how poorly they are monitoring their site, the protection of it, and how privacy is just a notion.

and if i had an account, i'd tweet that.

imo....

The point to take here is that there's no %100 safe system on the internet. Twitter have top notch employees but mistakes are always possible.

Some news are showing up today, It seems like a 17-old guy named Graham Clark was accused for being behind the Twitter hack.
