Call Secret Service Someone Hacked Obama's Twitter Account

Hackers usually are smart, but can be really, really stupid. The person who hacked Twitter – not the Direct Message phishing expedition that started over the weekend – could have picked pretty much anyone else on the planet and be less concerned of being tracked down.

This person hacked President-elect Obama’s Twitter account! There has to be Secret Service people – like the Diane Laine character in Untraceable – crawling through the internet tracking him/her down. That is if the person has not been quietly killed already (for my conspiracy theorist readers).

Barack’s account was one of 33 hacked, according to the Twitter blog.

“This morning we discovered 33 Twitter accounts had been “hacked” including prominent Twitter-ers like Rick Sanchez and Barack Obama (who has not been Twittering since becoming the president elect due to transition issues). We immediately locked down the accounts and investigated the issue. Rick, Barack, and others are now back in control of their accounts,” the site stated.

If the Secret Service kill the person during the arrest, I have a nomination for the Darwin Awards.
