The official X page of the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC) has been hacked. The hackers are using this page to promote a cryptocurrency that is not well-known.
This is part of a bigger problem where important accounts are being hacked.
The hackers take advantage of well-respected organizations or famous people to trick others into investing in fake cryptocurrency schemes.
Netizens have seen similar hacks with other famous accounts, including major companies and public figures.
The KBC hack is an example of this ongoing issue, showing that social media platforms like X need to improve their security to protect against these attacks.
The fact that the hackers are promoting an unknown cryptocurrency suggests they are trying to make it seem trustworthy by linking it to a respected media company like KBC.
These actions aim to trick people into investing in worthless assets and can also harm the reputation of the hacked organizations.
This incident reminds everyone to be careful, especially when they see unexpected cryptocurrency promotions on social media. It’s important to check the information through official sources before getting involved.
