The cyber attackers took advantage of the compromised account to endorse a relatively unknown cryptocurrency $LAW. This unexpected promotion raised eyebrows within the crypto community, as the coin lacks recognition and boasts an almost negligible market capitalization.
To promptly address the situation and ensure accurate information, Deaton’s daughter, acting on his behalf, took to Twitter to alert followers about the hack and encourage them to report the incident.
The XRP community swiftly joined forces to raise awareness and mitigate the impact of the unauthorized activity.
