Robinhood je potvrdio hakiranje na Twitteru koji je promovirao lažni kripto token

Robinhood confirmed that several of its social media accounts were breached earlier today in a statement emailed to CryptoSlate on Jan. 25.

Predstavnik kompanije je rekao:

Svjesni smo neovlaštenih postova sa Robinhood Twitter, Instagram i Facebook profila, koji su svi uklonjeni za nekoliko minuta. U ovom trenutku, na osnovu naše tekuće istrage, vjerujemo da je izvor incidenta bio preko dobavljača treće strane.

The company did not state which vendor may have been responsible.

The unauthorized breach saw Robinhood’s official account promote a Pametni lanac Binance-based token called $RBH. Though that token exists on-chain, it has no official relationship with Robinhood and appears to exist solely for use in today’s scam.

Although $RBH has no value itself, the adresa that appears to be responsible for the scam holds approximately 25.3 BNB ($7,750). Given that the account was created earlier today, it is likely that this amount was earned entirely through the Robinhood scam.

$RBH’s token ugovor indicates that just 61 addresses hold the fraudulent token.

Direktor Binancea Changpeng Zhao commented on the incident. He said that Binance has locked an account connected to the scam and is investigating the matter.

Robinhood allows users to trade and use cryptocurrency — including through its recently-launched samostalni novčanik — but has not issued any crypto token of its own.
