Dr. Ben Goertzel, a leading AI researcher, has recently fallen victim to a cyberattack on his ‘X’ account. The breach, reported by Singularity on Twitter, has left fans and the public on high alert. Everyone is strongly advised to block any communications from this compromised account, as all messages, posts, and offers may now originate from the hackers.
Importantly, there are currently no legitimate token giveaways or airdrops associated with Dr. Goertzel. The account remains under hacker control, actively promoting an airdrop for the token $AGIX.
Trying to Regain Control
Dr. Goertzel’s team is working closely with X company’s support and security specialists to recover the unauthorized account. They have expressed regret for any inconvenience caused and promised to provide updates soon.
Unfortunately, this is not an isolated incident. Other high-profile accounts have also been targeted by hackers, resulting in significant financial and reputational damage.
Cybercriminals staging their unhealthy exercises on social media calls for enhanced security measures and users’ awareness. As for the users, they are urged to be cautious and not respond to anything from the hacked account and should immediately report any such scams to the platform.
