Incident Overview
The attackers allegedly stole more than 145 ethereum ($256,000) worth of tokens. It appears that the community administrator's account was compromised, which gave attackers access to the administrator account on the server. They then went on to post a link to a phishing site that encouraged users to link their wallets to access "exclusive giveaways." Subsequently, the NFT project BAYC stated on its official Twitter that its Discord server was briefly attacked today, and the team quickly resolved the problem, but some NFTs were still affected.
