What happened
The official Twitter account of the DeFi platform Shell Protocol on Arbitrum is suspected of being stolen. It posted false news about the application of SHELL tokens and closed the comment area. Please do not interact with it. According to news, this attack seems to be due to the hacking of its founder’s SIM card, resulting in both personal Twitter and Shell Protocol’s Twitter being hacked, and the attacker is the PinkDrainer phishing gang.
