X user tricks Grok into sending them $200,000 in crypto using morse code

"Grok was then prompted on X to translate a Morse code message and pass it directly to Bankrbot. The decoded message instructed the bot to send 3 billion DRB tokens to a specific wallet address. The translated message was then treated as a valid command and executed immediately, with the transaction completed on Base, transferring the full token amount to the attacker’s wallet."
