ENTERTAINMENT NEWS - Dineo Ranaka, Mo-G and Kuli Roberts have all fallen prey to a cyber-attack that has taken complete control of their social media pages.
Dineo was the first of the trio to notice something was wrong with her Twitter account, when she was locked out.
“They changed the email associated with my account and then later sent me an email demanding that I hand over my Instagram password. They didn’t want money. I think they just wanted my 891 000 followers on Twitter and 386 000 followers on Instagram,” Dineo told TshisaLIVE.
Dineo said it was daunting to watch her account change before her eyes and stressed the importance of celebs being verified.
Shortly after Dineo made her situation known, her fellow Metro FM colleague Mo-G tried to verify his account which was when hackers pounced on him.
“I sent a mail to Twitter to request verification and I got a response from what seemed like Twitter asking for my password and account details to verify me. I handed it over and never heard back. I couldn’t access my Twitter account from Sunday but thought it was a technical issue with Twitter. I woke up on Monday and my account had changed,” he told TshisaLIVE.
