“Please be informed that the Department of Finance’s official X account @DOF_PH has been compromised and is no longer active for official use,” the DOF said in a Facebook post on Wednesday, August 14. The DOF advised the public to disregard any “unusual posts” made by its former X account and to be cautious of any messages or links that the account may have sent.
Upon examination of DOF’s X page, Rappler found that the account had been used to reply to at least 180 other posts on X. The replies, made using the DOF account that still holds the verified government account badge, touted schemes that would “supercharge asset performance” and “balloon crypto holdings.”
