X says attackers are targeting user accounts after the launch of X Money

X is investigating unsolicited password reset emails that may be connected to the launch of X Money, its new payments service. The platform suggests attackers are targeting user accounts in response to the service rollout.

Why it matters: X users may face account takeover attempts; practitioners should advise users to verify unexpected password reset notifications and enable multifactor authentication (MFA) immediately.
