X says attackers are targeting user accounts after the launch of X Money

X is investigating a wave of unsolicited password reset emails targeting users after the X Money payments launch, with no confirmed breaches yet.

Numerous X users reported unsolicited password reset emails following the launch of X Money, the platform's new payments service with accounts held at FDIC-insured Cross River Bank. Product engineer Mridul Singhai said the company found no evidence of successful breaches or mass account takeovers, while the Grok chatbot confirmed attackers are mass-triggering resets using public usernames. Users are being advised to enable two-factor authentication and Password Reset Protect while the investigation continues.

X Money rollout linked to password-reset attacks

X is investigating bulk unsolicited password-reset emails as its X Money payments service expands, with no confirmed breaches or account takeovers yet.

X users began reporting unexpected password-reset emails and codes on September 1, and product engineer Mridul Singhai said attackers appear to believe newly widespread X Money access makes accounts worth targeting. X says it has found no evidence of any breach or successful account takeover, and completing a reset still requires access to the account's email or phone number. X Money offers eligible US users interest-bearing accounts, a Visa debit card, and P2P payments, with Cross River Bank providing banking infrastructure. Malwarebytes warns the reset flood can serve as cover for phishing and urges reset protection, 2FA, and unique passwords.

Ready-made $500 kit puts a crypto scam within anyone's reach

A $500 ready-made scam kit sold on a cybercrime forum builds fake Tesla $TSLA presale pages that harvest wallet recovery phrases and cryptocurrency deposits.

Malwarebytes found a $500 scam-in-a-box kit by seller xrep on a cybercrime forum, bundling a fake Tesla-style $TSLA presale site, a victim-tracking admin panel, and controls to inflate fake balances. The kit harvests 12-word wallet recovery phrases via wallet-connection prompts or accepts direct transfers in Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, or Dogecoin. The admin panel lets operators check stolen wallets' value before draining them, raise displayed balances to encourage further deposits, and send follow-up messages demanding fake network fees.
