Joe Biden and Barack Obama’s Twitter Accounts HACKED… Along With Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Kanye West and MORE

The Twitter account belonging to former Vice President Joe Biden was hacked on Wednesday, the account belonging to former President Barack Obama was hacked shortly after.

Many other massive figures and accounts were also hacked, including Jeff Bezos, Kanye West, Mike Bloomberg, Elon Musk, Uber, Warren Buffet, Apple and Bill Gates.

The tweet was live on Biden’s page for less than two minutes.

“I am giving back to my community due to Covid-19!” said the tweet from Obama’s account, which has since been deleted. “All Bitcoin sent to my address below will be sent back doubled. If you send $1,000, I will send back $2,000!”

The hackers used the accounts to request money be sent to a Bitcoin wallet, which raked in tens of thousands of dollars in minutes. They claimed that any funds would be returned to the sender, doubled.

“It’s unclear how widespread the operation is, but it appears to be affecting major companies and extremely high-profile individuals, suggesting that someone has either found a severe security loophole in Twitter’s login process or third-party app, or that the perpetrator has somehow gained access to a Twitter employee’s admin privileges,” the Verge reports.

The first scam tweet appears to have been at 4:17PM ET from Elon Musk’s account. It said, “I‘m feeling generous because of Covid-19. I’ll double any BTC payment sent to my BTC address for the next hour. Good luck, and stay safe out there!” It also contained the address of the crypto wallet being used in all of the hacked tweets.

The original tweet from Musk’s account was quickly deleted, but another one went right up.

“Inside job or password is not a good password ,LOL”

Obama’s password was probably “I”, maybe “me”.

Well, considering how free liberals are with other people’s money and how they love the equality of socialism, they should just jump on this bandwagon and make the offer to do it anyways.

Twitter discovered the hack when their AI engine detected a coherent tweet from Joe Biden’s twitter account.

Allegedly, they hacked twitter directly. No passwords required.

This is an Big Tech earthquake. Going to be a BIG story in the coming days/weeks/months.

I’m shocked this thread doesn’t have a 1,000 comments. You all are missing an Earth shaking story.
