Twitter Account Hacks: Britney, Obama, FOXNews, Rick Sanchez.. Fall Victims

Twitter accounts are in serious trouble as I have seen at least 4 high-profile twitter accounts being hacked in the last 1 hour. Could this be a coincidence that these accounts are hacked at the same time or did someone find a loophole in the security system, it remains to be seen.

This morning informed it’s members of a phishing scam and requested them to be cautious, timing of this post couldn’t have been any better.

Anyway.. here is the list of people who have been hacked so far..

Pretty nasty stuff was put on Britney’s and Bill O’Reilly was pronounced Gay on FoxNews . On the other hand Obama’s only had a link requesting the followers to take a survey which most probably was an affiliate or spyware infected page.

So next time you see a -like login screen, make sure it is Twitter.com and not something else.
