Hackers have taken over a Twitter account belonging to US broadcaster Fox News and declared President Obama dead.
The @foxnewspolitics feed stated: “BREAKING NEWS: @BarackObama assassinated, 2 gunshot wounds have proved too much.”
More than two hours after the malicious postings appeared, they had still not been removed.
A group or individual, calling themselves The Script Kiddies appeared to claim responsibility.
Fox News said it was investigating the posts.
This just shows you any one can get there tweets or facebook accounts hacked – always use strong passwords NOT your name or kids birth day or 12345 or qwerty. Think about what you use… numbers, letters, symbols and no personal info. make sure you mix it up.
