Mark Zuckerberg's Social Media Accounts Get Hacked
- 8 years ago
Mark Zuckerberg's social media accounts have reportedly been hacked.
Social media hackers were out in force over the weekend, and a group calling themselves OurMine Team was able to take over some of Mark Zuckerberg’s accounts, reports TechCrunch.
Though the billionaire’s Facebook page reportedly remained uncompromised, the rogue operators were successful in breaching his Twitter and Pinterest accounts, notes Gizmodo.
They claimed that their shenanigans were made possible by a LinkedIn security breach, likely the one that occurred in 2012.
Tweeting with his account, they wrote, "You were in [the] Linkedin Database with the password 'dadada' ! DM for proof."
That message has since been deleted, and it appears Zuckerberg’s affected accounts have been disabled.
