Was JiDion hacked on Twitter? Streamer’s account posts new NFT promotion

sportskeeda.com:

Streamer and YouTuber Jidon "JiDion" was hacked earlier today, April 14. The hacker(s) gained access to his Twitter account and has been posting a series of tweets promoting an NFT project. In their latest post, they claimed that the first 100 people to buy the NFT would get a chance to collaborate with YouTuber Jimmy "MrBeast."

JiDion confirmed on Instagram that his Twitter account was compromised. He urged his followers to mass report the account so it would get restricted.

The hacker(s) appears to have shared JiDion's private information on Twitter. They posted a picture of the YouTuber's driver's license, which mentions his Social Security number. The post has since been deleted, and its authenticity is questionable.

They also tweeted that those who purchased the NFTs would receive free merchandise and the ability to access bloopers and behind-the-scenes footage of the YouTuber.

Fans should exercise caution and not engage with any suspicious links or messages sent from his hacked account. They may lead to harmful or fraudulent activity, such as phishing scams or malware installations.

At the time of writing, Jidon's Twitter account remains hacked, and the posts promoting the NFT project are still up. The hacker has also disabled replies to most of the tweets, presumably to avoid the backlash.

Fans were quick to notice suspicious activity on the YouTuber's Twitter account. Jidon's prompt response in confirming the news of the hacking helped curb the number of scams. Given that the account has over 600K followers, it is possible that some individuals had already fallen for the trap.

Here are some of the notable reactions to the story:

Some are speculating that the incident was a prank or staged for an upcoming video.
