Scammers hacked the late actor Matthew Perry’s Twitter account and posted a fake plea for cryptocurrency donations in the name of his foundation. The foundation confirmed the post was a scam and urged people not to donate.
The article details several possibilities for how the account may have been compromised, highlighting the importance of strong passwords and multi-factor authentication for securing social media accounts, especially for celebrities with large followings.
Lol, isn’t “cryptocurrency scam” a little repetitive?
The fact that people are still saying things like this about crypto—even after ETF approval—is proof that it’s still early. By the time the average person realizes what’s been going on with Bitcoin, it’ll be too late for you.
I’ve already tripled my initial investment from a year ago, and we’re just only getting started.
I don’t care about the environment because line go up
FIFY
Then invest in ETH instead. It uses proof of stake instead of proof of work.
You are proof that the only people interested in crypto do it to try and become rich.
That user only represents some of crypto. There are others like myself who are not in it to get rich, but to maintain sovereignty in a surveillance state and dystopian world such as we are heading for.
You assume that crypto is some “honest” and “for the people” currency system because its all documented in the blockchain, when in reality it is gamed by big banks, investors and scammers just like other financial tool where a lot of money is involved and no or insufficiant regulations are in place. If Elon tweets “you can no longer buy tesla withy bitcoin”, your savings will loose a lot of value over night.
Crypto being used for scams? Say it ain’t so!
Biggest scams are done in USD. The big part of not falling for a scam is doing your due diligence and people are adults and should be treated as such.
Biggest scams are done in USD.
That’s because USD is widely used.
Crypto isn’t widely used and it still has scams worth millions. Cryptwats are 🤡🤡🤡
At most a couple thousand. Ive been using crypto for ~10 years now and by doing my homework and not jumping on hype trains have not been scammed.
I haven’t yet sent my life savings to a Nigerian prince, so there are no scams.
