Hollywood Star Seth Green Lost 4 NFTs After Falling Victim To A Phishing Scam

Hollywood Star Seth Green Lost 4 NFTs After Falling Victim To A Phishing Scam

Seth Green, a well-known American actor, director, writer, and producer, revealed on Twitter on Tuesday that he had been phished by fraudsters, who had stolen many high-value NFTs from his crypto wallet. He also urged everyone not to buy the NFTs from the scammers, and tagged one of the buyers to help with.

Green has recently gotten into Web3, even releasing his own NFT collection, PizzaBots, in collaboration with Heavy Metal Magazine. He’s also working on an NFT-related animated series alongside DJ and fellow crypto promoter Steve Aoki.

The phishing assault occurred nine days ago. One Bored Ape, two Mutant Apes, and one NFT from the Doodles collection were among the NFTs stolen. The hacker sold the Bored Ape for nearly $200,000 and the Mutant Ape for $42,200. Based on the floor price of their collections, the other two NFTs are worth a total of $70,000. On OpenSea, the NFTs and Green’s account have been flagged as suspicious and possibly hacked.

Phishing assaults are widespread in the NFT space, because all it takes is linking your wallet to the wrong website to have all of your valuable tokens swiped permanently. Green’s experience is reminiscent of similar hacks in which victims resorted to social media to implore OpenSea and other users for help.
