NEO founder Da Hongfei: Social media accounts were hacked due to phishing emails, and control has now been regained.

Golden Finance reported that the founder of NEO, Da Hongfei, stated on X platform that he has regained control of the X account and sincerely apologized to the community, as this incident may have caused confusion or inconvenience. According to Da Hongfei, on the evening of July 6th, Singapore time, he received an email requesting a password reset. He realized that the X account had been locked 50 minutes after seeing the email. The Hacker changed the password of his X account, enabled two-factor authentication (2FA), and then began to post tweets containing fraudulent links. The intrusion occurred because he had previously connected a long third-party website/application (office and calendar management services) to his email. The Hacker somehow used these permissions to gain access to the content of my emails.
