Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg hacked, a group of young hackers known as OurMine Team claims to have taken over Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn accounts.
No one is secure when dealing with cyber security, even the popular Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. His social media accounts Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn have been hacked.
On Sunday, a group of hackers using the moniker “OurMine Team” claimed responsibility for the hack of the Twitter accounts of Mark Zuckerberg. OurMine is reportedly a group of young hackers from Saudi Arabia.
The group invited Mark Zuckerberg to contact them. Their Twitter account has already been suspended.
The news website Venturebeat.com reported that Facebook confirmed Zuckerberg’s Instagram account was not accessed despite the OurMine Team crew’s claims.
“No Facebook systems or accounts were accessed,” a Facebook spokesperson told VentureBeat in a statement. “The affected accounts have been re-secured,” reported Venturebeat.com.
The OurMine Team hackers explained that the hack was possible thanks to the LinkedIn password dump that recently occurred. If confirmed, this means that possibly the King of Social Networks might have used the same credentials among different social media.
At the time I was writing, Zuckerberg’s hacked account is up after a temporary suspension to delete OurMine Team’s tweets. This account has not been used by Zuckerberg since 2012.
