Apple, CNN & X Ads Hijacked For IToken Crypto Scam

They’ve hijacked the Apple logo. Faked a CNN link. And slapped it all over X (yeah, Twitter’s edgelord phase) to push a dirty little ghost coin they call “iToken.”
The bait? Sleek Apple branding + fake presale hype.
The catch? Your crypto wallet — drained.

🕳️ You click that ad?
Boom. Redirected to a slick-looking landing page.
Tim Cook is there — or at least a deepfaked version of him — swearing on his reputation that this token is the next big thing.
He’s not. It’s not. And your funds? Gone into one of 20+ wallet addresses operated by cyber-thieves.

This isn’t just an ad scam.
This is precision-engineered digital misdirection — exploiting X’s own display URL loophole and obfuscating the destination with shady link shorteners.

🔍 Investigators at Silent Push dropped the hammer:
Over 90 clone sites linked to this campaign were live last year alone.
And now it’s back — bigger, slicker, and juiced with AI-generated nonsense.

💬 “Impersonating brands? Old news.
Spoofing the actual visible X URL in ads?
That’s a new-level deception. Rare. Dangerous,” they said.

🔥 Cyberdark Analysis:

This is not your grandma’s email scam. This is a multi-layered phishing operation fronting as a crypto launch — and it works because it wears the skins of trust: Apple, CNN, Twitter. Even CEOs.

And X? Let’s be real — it’s become a breeding ground for crypto scams, influencer pump schemes, and malware-infused clickbait.
As long as the ad tools let them spoof URLs and run approval-blackout campaigns, this will keep happening.

Stay sharp. Stay paranoid.
Cyberdark watches the gate.
But the wolves are already inside.
