Sundar Pichai’s Quora account falls prey to hackers
Synopsis
Looks like Silicon Valley giants are hot targets for the OurMine Team. After breaking into Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg’s Twitter account last month, the team has now hacked Google CEO Sundar Pichai’s Quora account.
The OneMine team even managed to send out tweets via Pichai’s Quora account twitter extension but left his Twitter intact.
The Google supremo, however, regained his account a few minutes after it was compromised and the tweets were deleted.
The OurMine team claims that it is only working towards notifying the security flaws in the social networks and not compromising these accounts to wreck havoc.
The hacker group, using Pichai’s Quora account wrote, "Hey it’s OurMine, we are just testing your security, please visit OurMine to upgrade it.”
Earlier this month the same team had hacked Mark Zuckerberg's Twitter account and claimed they acquired his password from the massive 2012 LinkedIn hack.
Will the next two biggies on OurMine’s list be Apple CEO, Tim Cook and Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella?
