Hackers rename twitter account of three govt associations as Elon Musk
By MYBRANDBOOK
The Twitter accounts of the Indian Council of World Affairs (ICWA), Indian Medical Association (IMA) and Mann Deshi Mahila Bank were hacked, renaming the handle as 'Elon Musk'. Tweets from these accounts were discovered to promote cryptocurrencies.
Similar to the hacking of PM Modi’s account, tweets posted on the accounts of ICWA, IMA and Mann Deshi Mahila Bank were all promoting cryptocurrency. The hackers used the accounts to reshare several of the Tesla CEO’s tweets about cryptocurrencies as well as make several new ones claiming to be the billionaire himself.
Elon Musk’s name was added using special characters rather than actual text. The malicious actors have saturated the accounts with bogus crypto tweets and even commented on Elon Musk’s postings to allure users.
While the Twitter account of ICWA was recovered and switched back to normal, malicious tweets remain on the accounts of the Indian Medical Association and the Mann Deshi Mahila Bank. The account of IMA changed its display picture to default soon after the hacking and the handle’s name was switched back, hinting that the account was being recovered.
