Robinhood CEO Discloses Attacker Compromised His X Account by Social Engineering X Customer Support to Bypass 2FA

Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev stated that his X account was compromised last week. Attackers deceived X customer support through social engineering tactics, bypassing security measures such as two-factor authentication and login alerts, and posted false content related to meme coins. Subsequently, the X security team assisted in swiftly removing the relevant posts and restored account access on the same day.
