South Korean content creator Han Hye-jin's YouTube channel, boasting 860,000 subscribers, was hacked and deleted on July 10. The breach involved a fraudulent live stream titled 'Ripple (XRP): CEO Brad Garlinghouse’s Growth Forecast,' falsely claiming to feature Ripple's CEO. Hackers used social engineering tactics, likely phishing, to gain access, change passwords, and disable comments before uploading the deceptive content. This incident underscores the increasing security threats facing crypto content creators. Experts advise using two-factor authentication and strong passwords to mitigate such risks.
