According to a Turnon spokesman, a hacker who has handled the Truon Dow X account is estimated at about $ 45,000 in wrong funds.
Talking to the Quintel Graph, the Truon Public Relations team confirmed that on May 2, the Troon DAO account published the contract address and sent direct messages to the Truon account to seek payment for promotional advertisements.
“Our security team immediately identified the intervention and eliminated access to the hacker, but we ask the community to be vigilant,” he said. We will never ask the DM or any other way for any such payment. ”
The team said that based on the address of the illegal contract posted by the hacker, about 000 45,000 appeared, about 000 45,000.
Asked if the same hacker could be responsible for the New York Post’s X -Account Hack on May 3, the Troon team told the Quintel Graph that “there was some similarities between the two security incidents”. However, he also warned that the investigation was underway and “any definite relationship will be premature.”
After accessing, Truon Dow said in an X -update May 2 that he suspects that a member of the team was targeted by a team “malicious social engineering attack, which led to his account compromised.”
“Even after the culprits are logged out and restored our access, they continue to contact others, presenting posts from our central account in exchange for payment,” said Truon Dao.
The Troon team is still investigating and says they are in touch with law enforcement agencies. Trun’s founder Justin Sun also accused the Crypto Exchange Okax of failing to comply with a law enforcement request to freeze the stolen funds associated with the attack.
The founder and CEO of OKX has publicly denied the allegations, and Sun has removed the original post with the allegation.
