ESPN MLB reporter Jeff Passan was having a great day, as he had been the one to break the news of an agreement between the MLB and the MLB Players Association, who had been deadlocked on labor negotiations. Unfortunately, this was soured a bit by his 800,000-follower, verified Twitter account being compromised and repurposed to shill “Skulltoons” NFTs.Passan regained control of his Twitter account several hours later. Passan later wrote in a tweet, “hey remember that time i got hacked on the biggest news day of my life”. The Skulltoons project distanced themselves from the incident, writing that they believed the hackers were trying to scam the Skulltoons community.
