Blockchain Capital Twitter Account Suspectedly Hacked and Promoted Fake Token Airdrops

The Twitter account of the cryptocurrency investment company Blockchain Capital was apparently hacked and promoted a false BCAP token free airdrop activity. Blockchain Capital's account posted several posts promising to give away "BCAP" tokens and directed users to a counterfeit website that imitated the VC company's original appearance.

The URL of this counterfeit website added an "n" letter and required users to connect their cryptocurrency wallet. This is a common phishing strategy aimed at emptying users' funds. Please be aware of phishing risks and participate in similar activities with caution.
