The official X (formerly Twitter) account of TRON DAO was compromised by malicious actors through a social engineering attack targeting a TRON team member. The attackers shared a fraudulent contract address and messaged users, leading to reported asset losses. TRON founder Justin Sun publicly appealed to cryptocurrency exchange OKX to freeze funds linked to the scam that ended up on their platform and requested an immediate investigation. OKX CEO Star Xu responded, stating that the exchange requires official law enforcement documentation before freezing customer funds, and emphasized OKX’s commitment to cooperate with legal authorities and consumer protection policies. Law enforcement has reportedly begun investigating the incident.
