Hope withdrawal isn't too tough!
Oef! RIP to the Xitter account!
Sheesh. Happening too often.
Anyone have any details on whatโs going on? Iโve heard Calendly links and Zoom links might be the cause?
@npub1d3f4...r4xv
Thank you.
Whatโs Twitter? Iโve been out of the game for so long I forgot.
Thatโs awful :(
You didn't link to the message. You posted a screenshot, which can be faked ๐คฃ
Everyone can find it and verify but ok I'll post the event hash xD
Accounts hacked or suppressed or something?
You mean X. The bird died a long time ago.
It will always be Twitter. X is a figment of your imagination.
Guess she didn't know that.
Maybe she wants to use her Twitter Account and it's not working on X anymore ๐ค
Gold for sell i need serious buyers thanks contact on watsapp +256 765 785 063 for more info
Donโt trust, verify.
Do you have any bitcoin for sale? ๐
Gold on head.
Would you like to earn some #bitcoin? Send me a DM
do you want it
I'm not seeing a picture.
#Nostr fixes this.
Maybe a push to detach? Tbh, Iโm not ready for cutting the cord yet, but as more people like you go nostr only, it paves the way for small influencers like us.
Would you like to earn some #bitcoin? Send me a DM
I had 10 fake Lyn Aldenโs following me before I deleted my twitter account. Sounds like itโs getting worse. Glad I went all-in on NOSTR
Would you like to earn some #bitcoin? Send me a DM
Damn! I loaded up on those Alden Dollars! Don't tell me they are not actually endorsed by you!
First @npub1d3f4...r4xv and now you! Someone is after bitcoin authors
Iโm there, havenโt seen anything from your account.
Good. Iโve taken action to prevent it from being used by the hacker which seems to be working. But I donโt currently have access either. My first priority is making sure it causes no harm to anyone with scams.
This so wild ๐ค
Wow, Twitter has been getting roasted lately.
Sounds like a known insider backdoor to me.
Can't help you there
๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ซก
This is one of many problems with KYC-focused platfoems. They want to collect valuable information to send you to the Gulag, but do little to nothing to protect the integrity of your account.
Twitter has been a honeypot for scammers for a long time.
View quoted note โ
How did this happen? User error?
Just stay here on Nostr Lyn. โค๏ธ
๐ฑ
Oh ffs Iโm sorry Lynโฆ GOD DAMN THESE SCAMMING SCAMMERS WHY CANT THEY JUST GO GET A FUCKING JOB?!
I know, right?
Scamming is a job!
Unfortunately you find them here in nostr as well. Not so long ago a fake walker started following me, this week fake hodlonaut.
The world would be a boring place without scammers. Do you really want to live in a world without 2FA?
2FA, as implemented today, is a massive joke. See the recent Bybit hack. You never know what you're signing.
Bitcoin hwws like Trezor and Coldcard are shining exceptions.
Because of the Taxes ๐ซฃ
:/ good luck ๐ค Lyn
Bummer, Lyn.
Sorry to hear it.
Ah that sucks
This really sucks! Do you know get what happened? Rob figured out that Scott & Larry were socially engineered
X (formerly Twitter)
Rob Warren (@robertwarren) on X
Had insomnia and figured out how Scott and Larry got socially engineered. The whole thing is more evil than I thought it was.
If you have 45 minut...
๐Time to Nostr only.
Lyn did you have a YubiKey or such configured on your X account security?
On the one hand...sorry! Glad I know your npub!
OTOH... you've been hacked so you've achieved hack-worthy-celebrity status ๐
Deets for harm reduction?
Was your password weak?
Would a YubiKey have helped?
I posted a message on Twitter say ont your account has been hacked 4 hours ago
Sorry to hear that. Don't forget to check you phone and e-mail accounts.
We need a "2FA everything" cap
Someone mentioned 2FA but well, I don't give my phone number to a platform that's not worth it.
Not the compromised case, but I've read that fiatjaf has been through recently.
Now the Xitter platform is an irreparable well filled with toxic substances from abandoned bodies. I tried my best not to give up on the platform to the end, but surrendered. Booked as the next Myspace.
fiatjaf
I
Nostr full time ?
That sucks..
Thank God for Nostr
Sorry to hear
Oof that really sucks. Hope you get it back up and running soon
How can I help? Iโm on Twitter.
Seen this to much lately!
One could think it is on purpose.
Did you use 2FA?
Need 2fa with Authenticator app
Compliance Is Defianceยฎ
Email compromised possibly? Sorry to hear :( Good news is I ordered your book Broken Money. Gonna give it a read soon. You always had good analysis and insight in the markets when I seen you on Bloomberg and other interviews throughout the years. ๐ฅ๐ฏ
