Rapper Drake Fell Victim to Meme Coin: Hack Bringing in 5 Million Dollars' Worth of Volume! - Coin Bulletin

The X account of the famous rapper Drake was hacked, leading to a fraudulent attempt that obtained a transaction volume of $5 million from investors with a fake meme coin promotion.

Canadian famous rapper Drake's X (formerly known as Twitter) account was hacked on Saturday night and used to promote a Solana meme coin. This scam coin, which is claimed to be based on Drake's animation character "alter ego", was introduced to millions of followers of the famous artist.

A fake meme coin called "ANITA" was introduced from Drake's account, whose real name is Aubrey Drake Graham, and later deleted by an X account. It is claimed that the coin was created inspired by Drake's love for gambling and based on his cartoon character Anita Max Wynn. This name refers to the commonly used expression in the gambling world, "I need a max win". Please provide the text to be translated. Additionally, it was claimed that the meme coin was released in partnership with Drake's favorite crypto betting platform Stake in fake posts.

5 Million Dollar Volume

After being introduced to Drake's 39 million followers, the fake memecoin reached a $5 million transaction volume according to DexScreener data. However, investors quickly realized that the coin was fraudulent and halted their purchases. Subsequently, the fake posts on Drake's account were deleted.

Drake's account is just one of the high-profile X accounts that have been hacked in recent weeks. Last Sunday, the Cardano Foundation's X account was similarly compromised for a meme coin scam, generating only one-tenth of the transaction volume of ANITA. Other victims of the hack include famous names such as Cardi B, Doja Cat, and Metallica. Please provide the source text to be translated. This fraud attempt, which has come to the agenda with cyber attacks, once again reveals that famous figures have become targets in cryptocurrency frauds.
