We can confirm that the account @SECGov was compromised and we have completed a preliminary investigation. Based on our investigation, the compromise was not due to any breach of X’s systems, but rather due to an unidentified individual obtaining control over a phone number associated with the @SECGov account through a third party. We can also confirm that the account did not have two-factor authentication enabled at the time the account was compromised. We encourage all users to enable this extra layer of security. More information and tips on how to keep your account secure can be found in our Help Center: https://t.co/C9SIie1i16

⚠️ Phishing Alert ⚠️
Beware of job scams on freelance platforms...
Be cautious if someone invites you to apply for a job on platforms like Upwork, Fiverr, or Freelancer.
The scammer may ask job-related questions to gain your trust.
They might appreciate your experience and offer a job with a higher payout than your bid.
Stay alert if they share a link asking you to connect your MetaMask wallet to access their portal.
Connecting the wallet may lead to an attempt to wipe out your funds.
Verify the shared link, check their social media handles, and compare with official sources to spot phishing attempts.
Today, we encountered a similar incident with someone pretending to be Gamma Strategies, offering a $60/hour job. They shared a link, https://t.co/Ty9vethJCA, which appears identical to their official website, https://t.co/Z44kgv8BZf. Upon wallet connection, they attempted to drain funds.
Your attentiveness and awareness can prevent falling victim to phishing attacks.
Stay Vigilant and Stay Safe!

🚨 $320M Lost to Hacks in November only!
Did you know? A staggering $240M of this total loss resulted from compromised private keys. 😱
Here are some common ways private keys are compromised:
1/ Phishing Attacks: Malicious actors often use deceptive emails or websites to trick individuals into revealing their private keys.
2/ Insider Threats: A developer with access to private keys may intentionally misuse or leak them.
3/ Insecure Development Environments: If development environments are not adequately secured, they can become targets for attackers seeking to obtain private keys.
4/ Code Vulnerabilities: Bugs or vulnerabilities in the code, especially in smart contracts, can expose private keys if not properly addressed during development.
5/ Mismanagement of Keys: Developers might inadvertently expose private keys in code repositories, configuration files, or other insecure locations.
6/ Lack of Access Controls: Insufficient access controls can lead to unauthorized personnel gaining access to sensitive information, including private keys.
To mitigate these risks, developers should follow best practices for secure coding, implement proper access controls, use secure development environments, and undergo regular security training. Additionally, employing processes like code reviews and audits can help identify and rectify potential vulnerabilities.
