此前，埃隆·马斯克、总统乔·拜登和许多其他知名人士的 Twitter 账户都遭到了黑客攻击。此外，还有一些此类账户被用于加密货币诈骗的例子。
根据联邦贸易委员会 (FTC) 的诈骗记录，从 2020 年 10 月到次年 3 月，美国有 7,000 多名加密货币诈骗受害者，他们总共损失了近 8000 万美元。
黑客（身份仍然未知）入侵了陆军的 Twitter 和 YouTube 帐户。 PSSSSD 被用作 Twitter 帐户的新名称，“The PossessedNFT”在帐户的个人资料图片中突出显示。同时，另一个NFT的名字也被黑客利用了。随后，他将帐户名称从 PSSSSD 更改为“Bapesclan”。
英国国防部新闻办公室通过推特在得知陆军的社交媒体账户遭到黑客攻击后，已经开始进行调查。
The Possessed 的官方还提醒用户注意一个“新的经过验证的 SCAM 帐户”推特帐户：
Posse，有一个新的经过验证的 SCAM 帐户。请报告并小心。
The Possessed 是以太坊区块链上的动画 NFT 集合。 PSSSSD Labs 的共同创建者、艺术家 Joe 和开发人员 Tom builds 进行了将测试对象转变为附身 NFT 的实验。
好吧，诈骗者在 Army 的 Twitter 帐户上发布了几个指向 NFT 赠品的链接。但在将近 4 小时后，所有此类推文已被删除，账号也已恢复。
另一方面，黑客将英国军方的 YouTube 帐户更名为“Ark Invest”（由特斯拉和 Cathie Wood 拥有）。此外，他们还直播了 Jack Dorsey 和 Elon Musk 在采访中谈论比特币的旧视频。
