2023-12-20 22:16:24 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING
This is a scam since there has been no official Tweet or announcement from Ripple or its CEO Brad Garlinghouse. This scam asks your to scan a barcode which connects your crypto wallet and steal funds. Crypto users have lost millions of dollars to this modus operandi. https://www.hackread.com/qr-code-quishing-check-point-attack-spike/ https://www.ic3.gov/Media/Y2022/PSA220118 https://www.bitdefender.co.uk/blog/hotforsecurity/bitcoin-thieves-use-malicious-qr-code-readers-to-steal-45000-this-month/ https://consumer.ftc.gov/articles/what-know-about-cryptocurrency-and-scams

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1737538322128674831
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
