- Nelson Chamisa reported that his X account was hacked after a post promoting the “God Is In It” ($GIT) cryptocurrency appeared.
- The post, made early Tuesday morning, was deleted after less than two hours.
- Chamisa informed followers via WhatsApp that a Cybersecurity team was working to regain control of the account.
- The hacked post included videos showing a man resembling Chamisa endorsing $GIT, with some users doubting their authenticity.
- This incident led to speculation about who deleted the post if Chamisa had not yet recovered access to his account.
In the early hours of Tuesday, a post promoting a cryptocurrency called “God Is In It” ($GIT) appeared on the official X account of former Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) leader Nelson Chamisa. The post was removed less than two hours later.
According to Chamisa, the account was compromised by cybercriminals. He announced on WhatsApp at 6:25 AM that his team was working with the X support team to resolve the situation and secure the account.
i>To my fellow citizens, I wish to kindly inform you that my X (formerly Twitter) account has been hacked and compromised by cybercriminals, Chamisa stated. Our cybersecurity team is working diligently with X support team to fix this problem, regain control and implement remedial measures. We will keep you updated on the status of the account recovery and any actions being taken.~nc.
The now-deleted X post included two videos, which appeared to show a person dressed like Chamisa holding a paper labeled “$GIT.” Some users on the platform suggested these videos could have been artificially generated or manipulated, while others accepted them as genuine.
Following the incident, some followers raised questions about how the original post was removed if Chamisa still did not have access to the account. As of the latest update, the cybersecurity investigation and account recovery processes were ongoing. No further details on the origin or intent behind the $GIT cryptocurrency promotion have been provided.
