How hackers offered Twitter users to make money on a pump, but ended up being deceived

Once again, crypto villains surprise with their creativity: in the X network, such large accounts as Lenovo India, Yahoo and others were attacked by hackers. Only now, instead of a hidden hack, cyber fraudsters openly announced their actions and invited users to buy the meme token $HACKED, promising mutual enrichment.

The hackers' plan almost succeeded: the token rate soared by 900%, but the community figured it out faster. After selling the coins, the token fell almost to zero. As a result, the hackers were able to earn only $8K, which clearly did not cover their costs for the cyber attack.

In general, this is a story with an almost happy ending for the unfortunate investors who fell for the tricks of the scammers, but were able to minimize their losses.

This wallet regularly received deposits of exactly 100 BTC every few days, which led to certain thoughts. Upon deeper analysis, I noticed natural connections between this address and the well-known wallets of the large South Korean exchange Upbit. Having studied the transactions, I came to the conclusion that the so-called “Mr. 100” is highly likely to be a cold wallet of this exchange.
