Scammers pile on to impersonate Worldcoin on Twitter following token launch By Cointelegraph

Several fake accounts on Twitter — currently rebranding to X — were pushing malicious links to users following the launch of the Worldcoin human identity verification token.

July 24 marked Twitter’s rebrand to the letter “X” as well as the launch of the Worldcoin token. Though the change in brand has had mixed reactions online, the social media platform has not changed its policy of purchasing or applying to display differently colored check marks based on the type of account — a policy that went into effect in December 2022 while Elon Musk was CEO.
