NEAR Protocol CEO’s X Account Compromised: False Information Shared

NEAR Protocol has alerted the public about a security breach affecting the personal X account of its CEO, @BowenWang18. Hackers exploited this account to spread misleading information regarding a $1 million NEAR giveaway. The NEAR team is actively working to secure the compromised account and will issue an update once full control is restored. Until then, users are urged not to engage with or share any fraudulent posts related to the alleged giveaway and exercise caution against potential phishing attempts.
