On January 25th, the Scroll project announced an important security incident through its official X account. It has been confirmed that the co-founder @shenhaichen’s X account was hacked, and active measures are currently being taken to recover the account. Users are advised to be especially cautious of all messages and links sent from the compromised account.

Do Not Respond to Phishing Links and Personal Messages

Phishing links or suspicious personal messages distributed through the hacked account are attack methods targeting users’ assets. In particular, messages urging immediate account recovery or participation in reward events are highly likely to be sent, so please do not click on any links. Messages requesting wallet access information or private keys should be handled with even greater caution.

Community members should refer only to Scroll’s official website and verified official channels for accurate information. Please do not respond to suspicious news or content from unverified sources.
