Microsoft India's verified X account was hijacked to impersonate Roaring Kitty and promote a phishing site (presaIe-roaringkitty.com) that lures users to connect crypto wallets and have assets drained; attackers amplified reach with bot accounts. The report also links similar compromises (SEC, Netgear, Hyundai MEA, CertiK) to SIM-swapping and weak 2FA practices, and cites a broader wave of crypto wallet drainers (notably 'MS Drainer') that reportedly stole roughly $59M from tens of thousands of victims.
