Did you see that OpenAI’s account on X got hacked by crypto scammers? That’s crazy!

Yeah, I saw! They posted about a fake token called '$OPENAI,' trying to get people to connect their crypto wallets. It’s a phishing scam.

That’s wild. So, they’re just stealing people’s crypto if they connect?

Exactly. The scammers set up a fake website that looks like OpenAI’s but with a small mistake in the URL. Once someone connects their wallet, the scammers drain their crypto or NFTs.

Wow, even OpenAI isn’t safe from hacks like this? I thought big companies had better security!

You’d think so, but even high-profile accounts can be targeted. OpenAI isn’t the only one—it’s happened to Apple, Elon Musk, and even Joe Biden in the past. These crypto scams are becoming more common.

So, what should people do to avoid falling for this kind of scam?

First, always double-check URLs before you click. If something sounds too good to be true, like a free crypto token, it probably is. And never connect your wallet to a site unless you’re absolutely sure it’s legit.

Makes sense. It’s scary how easy it is to fall for something like this, especially when it looks official.

Totally. That’s why it’s so important to stay alert. Even trusted sources can get hacked, so it’s best to be cautious.

I guess it’s just another reminder to be careful online. Thanks for explaining!

No problem! It’s always good to stay informed, especially with how fast things change in the crypto world.
