Virtuals Protocol Discord server hacked, fake Google links posted
The security incidents occurred days after a researcher discovered a critical bug in a Virtuals Protocol audited contract, which was fixed.
AI agent platform Virtuals Protocol suffered a hack to its Discord server on Jan. 8, and several fraudulent links purporting to be the Virtuals Protocol website were posted on Google Search.
According to the Virtuals team, one of the Discord group’s moderators was the victim of a private key breach that compromised the messaging server. The breach has since been resolved.
Cybersecurity firm Scam Sniffer also detected three malicious links advertised on the Google Search page impersonating the Virtuals Protocol website in a separate incident.
