Solana co-founder doxxed on hacked rap group Migos’ Instagram account

Solana co-founder Raj Gokal’s personal information was leaked on a series of Instagram posts uploaded on U.S. hip-hop group Migos’ Instagram page in an apparent hack. On May 27, an Instagram account belonging to American rap trio, Migos, was reportedly compromised by hackers who gained access to Gokal’s personal information and used it to dox him and his wife. The now-deleted Instagram posts featured pictures of the Solana ( SOL ) Labs President holding his driver’s license and passport, both unredacted. Another post featured a woman, claimed by the hackers to be Gokal’s wife, holding her driver’s license. The seven pictures were shared to the 13 million followers on Migos’ Instagram account. One of the posts shared Gokal’s personal contact information, including his phone number. The poster then urged people to “spam” the Solana co-founder, effectively doxxing him. A caption written on the post that showed Gokal holding his driver’s license seemingly implied that he was initially blackmailed before his personal information was leaked on social media. Tagging Gokal’s Instagram account, the hacker wrote: “you should’ve paid the 40 BTC.” At current prices, 40 Bitcoin ( BTC ) would be equal to around $4.3 million.

He reminded them to stay vigilant and not to trust any suspicious posts on his social media. “Attackers have been trying to take control of my email, social media, Google, Apple, etc. this past week. If you see anything suspect (token launch, soliciting funds, etc) that means they got through,” wrote Gokal in his post . https://twitter.com/rajgokal/status/1924843729229062402 At press time, neither the Solana official account nor Raj Gokal’s X account have made a post responding to the recent incident related to the Migos Instagram account. However, the posts have since been removed from the Migos official Instagram page as of 5:12 AM UTC. In the past few months, a number of crypto-related accounts have been compromised by hackers. These accounts were used to promote fake cryptocurrencies or spread misinformation in the web3 space. Some recent X account hacks include meme coin launchpad Pump.fun and crypto media platform Watcher Guru among others. Read more: Watcher Guru official X account compromised by hacker
