Rumors are circulating that wallets linked to Banana Gun, a crypto trading bot on Telegram, are being drained.
Users are strongly advised to withdraw their funds immediately as a precaution until further notice.
Banana Gun Users in Danger
SponsoredBanana Gun is a popular tool for automating cryptocurrency trades directly on Telegram, allowing users to execute trades faster with minimal effort. According to several community reports, wallets linked to the bot have been drained over the past few hours.
“We are investigating the issue, bot is currently offline,” the Banana Gun team wrote.
Some sources, however, suggest the bot itself may not have been hacked, as the number of victims remains limited.
“Seems like there is already 36 victims with almost 563 ETH stolen so far on mainnet. The last one was drained an hour ago, but there is more rumour that drains started on SOL too. I wouldnt say that Banana Gun itself got hacked, not enough victims”, one X user noted.
