Trump Media stock slides under $18, a new low since it began publicly trading
The X accounts of two family members of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump appeared to have been hacked Tuesday in order to promote a scam aimed at cashing in on the Trump family’s nascent crypto venture.
The hacks come as the former president prepares to release his crypto policy platform, and his campaign wrestles with the fallout of a foreign cyberattack.
Shortly after 8:15 p.m. ET, the X account belonging to Trump’s daughter-in-law, Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump appeared to announce that the digital currency project, dubbed World Liberty Financial, had been launched.
The account provided several links to Trump’s 1.7 million followers to a coin and websites claiming to be “the only official channels of World Liberty Financial.”
One minute later, Donald Trump’s youngest daughter, Tiffany Trump’s X account also posted an endorsement and a website link.
The website linked to in the Trump family posts had been created earlier in the day Tuesday and registered via an anonymous domain hosting platform called Njalla Okta LLC, according to domain lookup site WhoIs.com.
Who could possibly have guessed there'd be some nefarious activity surrounding another trump venture.
