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.

When scanners miss the attack: how Cloudflare Client-Side Security protects storefronts

Cloudflare's Page Shield ML uncovered four malicious JavaScript campaigns on storefronts, including affiliate fraud and a remote-backdoor script, that VirusTotal and URLScan missed.

Cloudflare's Page Shield ML detected four client-side JavaScript operations (eight payloads) in live traffic on online storefronts, enabling affiliate commission hijacking, clickless affiliate theft via hidden iframes, user tracking with a remote-code backdoor, and cloaking of paid mobile visitors. Seven of the eight payloads were absent from VirusTotal and URLScan returned no malicious verdict for any, including a Lnkr-family payload indexed unclassified for roughly 2.5 years. Detection relies on a graph neural network over JavaScript syntax trees, an LLM second opinion on Workers AI, and a frontier-model ensemble voting across benign, magecart, other malware, and cryptomining labels.

NYU professor Jeff Sebo received roughly 40 agent emails in one week. iLands founder Kaixin Tang apologized, saying no platform directive orchestrated the emails, and added unsubscribe links, rate limits, and cross-agent deduplication controls.
