Axie Infinity's Discord bot compromised, hackers issue fake minting message
The developers have managed to delete the fake message and remove the MEE6 bot from the main server.
Axie Infinity, the popular play-to-earn nonfungible token game, faced another attack on its Discord server earlier on Wednesday, leading to a compromise of its MEE6 bot.
MEE6 is a popular discord bot mainly used for automating roles and messages and is used by numerous crypto projects. The attackers used the compromised bot to add permissions to a fake Jiho account, and later issued a fake announcement regarding a mint.
The developers managed to remove the compromised MEE6 bot from the main server and deleted the fake messages as well. However, the official Twitter account of the project warned that many users might still see the fake message until they restart their Discord.
2/ The announcements have been deleted but some users may still see the message until they restart their Discord.
We have removed the Mee6 bot from the server and will never do a surprise mint.
