Last week, the Italian fast-food restaurant revealed that its Discord channel had suffered a security breach, in which bots posted malicious links for nearly half an hour to redirect users to a bogus mining website.
Per the announcement, scammers were only able to steal 10 ETH ($17,573) worth of non-fungible tokens, Metaverse land, and other assets.
