03 p.m.Pacific Time (as per timestamps on the tweets), reports VentureBeat.Later, her account started promoting a new cryptocurrency called "$OPENAI" that was allegedly "driven by artificial intelligence-based language models".
In the unauthorised tweets, Muratis followers were encouraged to send money to an Ethereum digital wallet address in order to receive free "airdropped" coins.The tweets were quickly deleted before reappearing minutes later with slightly altered wording, according to the report.
Muratis account had the tweets up for more than 45 minutes.Her account was restored to its original state, and the tweets were removed.
The apparent hack of Muratis account comes four months after Twitter modified its two-factor authentication policies, removing SMS text messaging as a way to secure accounts unless users subscribe to Twitter Blue.The report said that security experts have expressed concern that the changes may make high-profile accounts more vulnerable to takeovers.
