Tempted to click Riot Phroxzon’s link for an LoL crypto coin? Just back away slowly instead
If you’re a League of Legends player who frequents social media, you probably saw a post from lead gameplay designer Matthew “Phroxzon” Leung-Harrison about a crypto coin. And as per usual with this sort of thing, you should not click that link.
League‘s dev team X/Twitter account confirmed that Phroxzon’s account on the same platform had been hacked, and that the “LOL coin” is a scam. Hopefully, you were able to tell that just by looking at the link, Phroxzon being the only Rioter advertising a new coin, and also the whole general deal with how these crypto scams work in the first place, as it’s happened many times now with hacked social media accounts like Kotaku’s, particularly on X/Twitter.
