Oh dear. The post has now been deleted, but clicking it took people to a phishing website that asked them to connect their crypto wallet in order to claim the non-existent "$OPENAI" token, per Techcrunch. Usually a scam like this would result in victims' wallets being drained after they connect and sign a malicious transaction.
This isn't the first time OpenAI has fallen victim to hacks. The individual accounts of key employees, including CTO Mira Murati, chief scientist Jakub Pachocki, and researcher Jason Wei, have all previously been compromised and used to promote fake tokens.
