On Tuesday, social media profiles of Trump family members, including Lara and Tiffany Trump, were hacked to promote a fake cryptocurrency project.
The posts on X, formerly Twitter, were related to a digital-asset initiative called “World Liberty Financial.” Eric Trump confirmed the posts were part of a scam, and X locked down the affected accounts “within minutes.”
The now-deleted post on Lara Trump’s account falsely claimed the project aimed to take power away from traditional banks and give control to the people.
The post linked to a fake website promoting a governance token called $WL on the Solana blockchain.
The Trump campaign has not yet commented on the incident, and the World Liberty Financial X page has warned against clicking on any links or purchasing tokens from the hacked profiles.
