May 2022 - Alien Frens Discord Hacked - $Unknown (Global)
"HI FRENS! WE ARE ON A MISSION TO BUILD THE LARGEST GROUP OF FRENS IN THE UNIVERSE. OWNING AN ALIEN FREN GRANTS YOU LIFELONG ACCESS TO AN EXCLUSIVE FRENSHIP FILLED WITH PERKS!"
"ENTER THE INCUBATION CHAMBER THE INCUBATION CHAMBER IS NOW OPEN AND YOU HAVE 5 NEW OPTIONS, FROM MUTATING YOUR AFE TO PARTNERING YOUR AFE WITH BRANDS! WHICH WILL YOU CHOOSE?!"
"Alien Frens is a community driven collection of 10k randomly generated NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain. Our goal is to build the biggest group of frens in the Metaverse. 1 Alien Fren NFT that provides you not only an awesome PFP and a lifelong frenship with 10k other Frens, but a ticket to our IRL events, Invasions, Exclusive Merch, Comic Books, and more."
"Alien Frens are 10,000 digital art collectibles that people can buy, sell, and trade. They were created randomly – so each one is unique – and they’re permanently stored on the Ethereum blockchain."
Alien Frens "publicly launched on December 20, 2021."
"Owning an Alien Fren grants you lifelong access to an exclusive frenship filled with perks! This includes, but is not limited to: Online groups and networks, IRL events and experiences, Clothing, merchandise, and IP products, [and] Fren Coin, which is usable in the Frens Marketplace. We listen to holders, incorporate feedback from our community, and build with one another to provide as much ongoing value as possible."
"Alien Frens, another NFT project, also confirmed the hack on Twitter saying: “we were hacked as with many others today, we’re not sure how they infiltrated yet.”
"Once you interact with these fake bots they will snag your discord token, giving them instant access to your account without 2FA or your password."
Further Analysis
Alien Frens was reportedly among those projects affected by a breach on their Discord servers. These typically promised an enticing mint in order to convince followers to provide full wallet authorization. Once the wallet was authorized, it would be emptied.
