$GOLD Scam Exposes Trump-Linked Accounts as Attack Surface
A Twitter account linked to Donald Trump promoted a token called $GOLD before wallets associated with the project appeared to sell their holdings. This added concern about how Trump-linked accounts can be used to lend credibility to speculative crypto tokens.
The Twitter account realtrumpcoins1 is followed by @realDonaldTrump and describes itself as an “Official Partner of The Trump Organization.”
Coin Bureau flagged the $GOLD posts as an apparent hack, but neither the account holder nor the Trump Organization has separately confirmed that the account was compromised.
