Donald Trump

Lara and Tiffany Trump’s X (formerly Twitter) accounts were hacked on Tuesday evening to promote a scam cryptocurrency linked to a project called World Liberty Financial.&nbsp; 
Scammers posted tweets claiming to share the “only official” blockchain addresses for the project World Liberty Financial from Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law and daughter’s X account. In one tweet, Lara Trump mentioned that the token, $WL, would be used to support decentralized finance (DeFi) lending protocol on the Solana blockchain.

However, not long after, Eric Trump, the middle son of former President Donald Trump, announced on X that both accounts had been compromised and warned that the addresses shared were part of a scam.&nbsp; 
World Liberty Financial quickly followed up with a statement, urging people to avoid clicking on any links or purchasing tokens shared from Lara and Tiffany’s profiles. They assured the public that they were working to resolve the situation and advised everyone to stay vigilant. 
This incident marks the third time a token has been falsely linked to the Trump family. Previously, the DJT token was promoted by convicted fraudster Martin Shkreli and falsely claimed to involve Barron Trump, Donald Trump’s youngest child. Another project, Restore the Republic (RTR), briefly hit a $155 million valuation before crashing. 
According to the World Liberty Financial’s white paper, Donald Trump is set to be the “chief crypto advocate” with other family members, including Eric, Donald Jr., and Barron Trump, taking on various roles. However, the project has no official launch date yet. 
The hack of Lara and Tiffany Trump’s X accounts highlights the ongoing risks in the cryptocurrency space. It’s crucial for users to remain cautious and verify sources before engaging with new projects.
