Former energy company Enron holds its place in history as one of the largest accounting scandals in U.S. history. A social media account claiming to be the energy company is teasing a comeback on the 23rd anniversary of the company's bankruptcy.

What Happened: Anyone around the financial markets when Enron Corporation declared bankruptcy on Dec. 2, 2001, is likely skeptical to trust a revival of the former company or any company using the name Enron to launch a new business.

On Monday, a social media account on X of @enron teased the revival of the energy company with a one-minute video and the caption "We're back. Can we talk?"

"In the modern world, we must accept that change is the only constant," the video declares.

The video features many images that appear like they could be created using artificial intelligence, followed by several individuals declaring "I am Enron" and the former company's logo being made by a series of people.

The X account for Enron, which has around 8,000 followers and has a date of May 2024 for joining the social media platform, also posted a tease of a cryptocurrency launch.

"To respond to the thousands of messages we've received: We do not have any token or coin (yet). Stay tuned, we are excited to show you more soon."

The post on X has already been Community Noted with the caution that this could be "a crypto scam masquerading as bankrupted Enron Corporation."

Would have been funnier if they had saved this for April Fools Day.

I would make an Enron away from this if it were real.

Bad Ju-ju.

Enron should come back, screw the Feds again, get caught, and go bankrupt again just so we can get part 2 of that documentary!!!!

The Enron comeback tease is wild I’ll grant you that, but it’s hard to actually take it seriously. It, after all, is one of the biggest scandals in history. So if it’s ever a crypto scam, it’d just make for another addition to their already legendary failure.

The poster? Or is the Enron executive that got caught with a stripper and sold all of his stock to hide it from his wife before the collapse?
