Scammers hacked the late actor Matthew Perry’s Twitter account and posted a fake plea for cryptocurrency donations in the name of his foundation. The foundation confirmed the post was a scam and urged people not to donate.

The article details several possibilities for how the account may have been compromised, highlighting the importance of strong passwords and multi-factor authentication for securing social media accounts, especially for celebrities with large followings.

    Every celebrity/rich has a foundation. And they make you believe that they do it to help the poor.

      He had a foundation for helping people with addiction issues. By all accounts he was very committed and proud and it helped a lot of people but you continue making generalisations and insensitive suggestions.

          How exactly do you expect actors to make movies and TV shows and not become famous? Every show and movie has new people, most of them who can’t act?

          Your thinking is so interesting that I need to learn the way you think. Please answer this if you don’t mind: If someone who are good at what they are doing are garbage, how do you define those that are not good at what they are doing?
