Mark Zuckerberg's Social Media Accounts Restored After Hack | NWI

Facebook Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg’s Twitter and Pinterest accounts have been resecured, a spokesman from the social media platform said on Monday.

The accounts of Mark Zuckerberg on Twitter and Pinterest were compromised over the weekend.

The hacker group ‘OurMine Team’ behind the hacking claimed that it was possible due to the LinkedIn password dump that happened a few weeks ago.

OurMine’s Twitter account now stands suspended.

“So Twitter suspended our old Twitter. We are trying to get it back if not this account will be the official,” OurMine Team tweeted from its new account.

Millions of LinkedIn user account details were leaked online last month and the company reacted by invalidating the credentials and contacting affected members to reset their passwords, the report said.
