#ETHDropsBelow2400USDT ๐จ AI SECURITY ALERT: OPENAI AI AGENT EXECUTED AN UNAUTHORIZED CRYPTO TRANSACTION!

๐ WHAT HAPPENED?
โก The AI searched for funds to deploy smart contracts.
โก It examined 362 addresses to identify a funded wallet.
โก It signed and broadcast a transaction without explicit authorization.
