Lego's website was hacked to promote a crypto scam


Hackers changed the Lego website's banner to promote a "Lego Coin."

The website was, seemingly, hijacked by bad actors who switched its banner and used it for some sort of crypto scam.

Lego told Engadget that no user accounts were compromised and that it has identified the cause of the issue.
