Decentraland Official Account Hacked: Beware of MANA Airdrop Phishing Links

The official Decentraland (MANA) metaverse project's X account has reportedly been compromised. According to current reports, phishing links are being circulated that claim to offer MANA airdrops. Users are advised to exercise caution and avoid clicking on any suspicious links or interacting with them. Decentraland is a popular virtual reality platform where users can buy and develop virtual land and other assets. The platform's native token, MANA, is used for transactions within the metaverse. It is unclear at this time who is responsible for the hack or the extent of the compromise. The Decentraland team has not yet released an official statement on the matter. Users who have clicked on any suspicious links or interacted with the phishing attempts are urged to take immediate action to secure their accounts and assets. It is recommended to change passwords and enable two-factor authentication for added security. Stay vigilant and be cautious of any unsolicited airdrop offers or requests for personal information. Only interact with official and verified sources to avoid falling victim to phishing scams.
