Lume - Our X account is hacked

Our X account was compromised approximately 48 hours ago. The unauthorized party is actively attempting to defraud users by launching tokens through "Pump" and has falsely associated a fake profile as an affiliate of our project. They are currently employing phishing sites to scam users and drain their cryptocurrency wallets.

The attached screenshot from the compromised Lume Account shows a prompt encouraging users to join a fraudulent Discord link. This is not our official Discord server. We strongly advise anyone who may have joined this Discord to exit immediately to avoid becoming a victim of this scam.

We have been made aware that a scammer is currently promoting a token launch via X, falsely claiming that our account has been restored. We wish to clarify that our account has not been restored, and these claims are entirely fraudulent.

We strongly advise all users and subscribers against clicking any links or participating in any token sales associated with these deceptive promotions. Please be aware that the official team would never launch a token in this manner.

We have identified an individual using the monikers "Shimon" on Telegram and "apsch" on Discord as a scammer. We attempted to negotiate the return of the compromised account, even offering $5,000, but our efforts were unsuccessful, as the individual appears solely intent on defrauding others.

The scammer goes by the name Mark on X. He is currently listed himself as an affiliate.
