Watch Your Twitter Account

What do Burger King, Jeep, and MTV have in common? They have all been hacked by someone through their twitter accounts Jeep is today's victim, and was struck by having its background image swapped out this afternoon to show a sedan painted with the McDonald's logo and colors. A couple of tweets from the hackers read "#BOOTYGANG #ITHUG" and "We got sold to @Cadillac because we caught our employees doing these in the bathroom =[", with an attached picture of a man holding a bottle of pills. As of 2:02 p.m. ET, the background color had been restored to black, though the hackers' tweets were still in the tweet stream. And as of 2:17 p.m., the handle's main picture -- which had been changed to the Cadillac logo -- had been changed back to a default image. Meanwhile, the Cadillac Twitter account has tweeted that it's not responsible for the hack. McDonald's was also the subject of the hack of the Burger King account yesterday, when the handle's photo was swapped out to an image of the famous Golden Arches. The hackers' tweets were thematically similar to today's on the Jeep page, including one that read, "We caught one of our employees in the bathroom doing this... #soldtomcdonalds #failurewhopper @McDonalds" and included a link to a picture of a man sticking a needle in his arm. Twitter declined to comment further on the Burger King incident, citing privacy and security concerns for individual accounts. I personally dont understand how twitter is allowed to get off here with a no comment. Youre site is being hacked left and right and there is no legitimate end in site. I think that this group already has everyone's information and is slowly deciding who and when to strike.
