Rapper 50 Cent recently shared on his Instagram that he was a victim of a cryptocurrency scheme. According to him, a hacker gained access to his Twitter account and Thisis50.com, then used them to promote a cryptocurrency, making $300 million in just 30 minutes. 50 Cent clarified that he had no involvement with this particular cryptocurrency and thanked Twitter for swiftly securing his account again.
In his Instagram post, 50 Cent included screenshots of the $GUNIT crypto, which began with a market value of under $1 million but rapidly increased. It is alarming to see how quickly a scammer was able to manipulate the situation and profit massively from it. Let this be a reminder to always stay vigilant and cautious when it comes to dealing with cryptocurrencies and online security.
