American TV personality and sports commentator Skip Bayless fell victim to crypto scammers who hacked his account to promote a Solana-based token called SKIP. The attacker posted politically motivated messages endorsing Donald Trump and promoting the SKIP token. The hacker dumped tokens immediately after a post appeared on Bayless's account, earning only $8,200. Despite briefly reaching a market cap of over $69,000, the token's value has since plummeted. Other celebrities, including Wiz Khalifa and 50 Cent, have experienced similar hacks to promote tokens.
