Hackers hijacked the official Twitter account of the Indian Medical Association (IMA) and changed his name to Elon Musk to commit crypto fraud.
This account, which was previously verified by Twitter, appeared to be Elon Musk’s account.
The scammers announced that they will distribute 5,000 Bitcoin (BTC), 100,000 Ethereum (ETH) and 100 million Dogecoin (DOGE) in the account named after Elon Musk.
The president of the Medical Association, Dr. Sahajanand Prasad Singh said scammers will have to face the consequences of this action.
Hackers also hacked the Twitter account of Deshi Mahila Bank and the World Affairs Council of India.
Accounts have been recovered. However, the incident is still under investigation. Scammers are allegedly directing people to a link with the promise of distributing crypto.
Previously, the Indian Prime Minister’s Twitter account with 73.4 million followers was seized for Bitcoin fraud.
