The LEGO Coin (LEGO) meme token dedicated to the popular LEGO construction sets was released by scammers to steal cryptocurrency.

On October 5, an advertisement for LEGO Coin appeared on the LEGO website, stating that coin buyers would receive some rewards. However, a link to a phishing portal was attached to the ad, and the scam was quickly uncovered.

Guys from LEGO, someone hacked your site and changed the main page! The link leads to a cryptocurrency portal that definitely does not belong to you! - wrote a LEGO lover known under the pseudonym ZTBricks.

After about 75 minutes, LEGO employees removed the advertisement for the digital asset and reported that the problem had been fixed. No one was allegedly harmed by the attackers, and people can continue to use the site without fear for their cryptocurrency savings.$HMSTR $WIF $PEOPLE
