Beeple has warned that the URLs to his Discord appear to have been hacked — meaning visitors are being redirected to a fraudulent site ⚠️

In order to enter the Discord, users may have to connect their Ethereum wallet to prove that they own a piece of digital art that he created.

Even experienced collectors have fallen victim to such scams in the past — and unfortunately, they have proliferated across Twitter as well as Discord.Back in May, Beeple's Twitter account was also compromised — with hackers taking over for a five-hour period. Other tweets boasted that Beeple was giving away 200 NFTs for free — and overall, security researchers have estimated that his followers lost $438,000."Stay safe out there, anything too good to be true IS A F****** SCAM. And as side note, there will never be a SURPRISE MINT I mention one time in one place starting at 6am Sunday morning."
