 | Members of the Trump family are currently in the process of launching a defi platform "World Liberty Financial". They haven't released any information about what the defi platform would entail so when two members of the Trump family got hacked. Scammers were able to pull off an elaborate scam by pretending to release information on the project and directed people to buy the token. The Scam announcement Tweets: This second Tweet was meant to add additional believability by coming from a second member of the Trump family The website that was linked had a token address listed and looked like: Apparently the only thing you needed to do to be part of the defi revolution was load up a wallet with SOL and then purchase the token. That's it.... The 1,2,3 steps on the website might be the dumbest part of the entire scam. After the announcement post the two hacked accounts shilled the tokens hard on X claiming to be related to the Trump org and warned others to watch out for scams pretending to be World Liberty Financial. In this tweet the scammer cleverly links the telegram channel with the website thereby claiming legitimacy by association. Roughly 40 minutes after the scammers took over the two accounts Eric Trump finally managed to tell people that the relentless shilling from the two hacked accounts were in fact a scam. All the above Tweets have since been removed by Twitter support. I will update with how much the scammers made once I know more. Edit: This address appears to be the scammers address and is accumulating SOL that was recieved from selling the scam token in other wallets. So far it has accumulated $411K in sol from the scam. https://solscan.io/account/2QRHmaBBo9WCVDCcvmQVx2FZJ57SJ7zSYVEFEr1utzJy#transfers I may be missing other addresses, but it looks like at least $410K was stolen.
