Twitter account of India's education body hacked: Hackers promote fake Azuki NFT drop
The NFT craze keeps on reaching novel industries as recently, the food industry giants like KFC, Pizza Hut, Hooters, and more filed for NFT trademarks. However, the Twitter NFT community is as unsafe as ever with many people being scammed every other day. Hackers are also actively searching for a verified Twitter account with huge followers to promote scams.
UGC Twitter hack
The official Twitter account of UGC or University Grants Commission of India, a statutory body set up by the Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Education, Government of India, was hacked and the account which has around 296K followers were used to promote a fake NFT drop.As seen in the image below, the hackers aimed to promote a fake NFT collection called Azuki by hacking the UGC Twitter account. Furthermore, a number of tweets promoting fake NFT collections were posted and the entire account was filled with such posts. On the other hand, the UGC continued its attempts to recover its account.
After around 6 hours, the account of UGC was recovered and all the posts promoting the fake NFT collections have been deleted. It is important to note that the attackers promised to airdrop Beanz NFT to all the Azuki holders and in order to do so, asked them to connect their wallets.
Not the only case
Recently, Cryptonary reported that the account of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was hacked and the hackers posted that Bitcoin was the official legal tender of the nation. It is a notable fact that Twitter hackers and scammers are eyeing verified accounts so that they are able to portray trustworthy projects and scam people.In a similar case, as per Cryptonary's previous report, a Twitter user's BACY, and MAYC were stolen and the price of these NFTs was around $500K.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
