OurMine hacks half a dozen WWE Twitter accounts

OurMine hacks half a dozen WWE Twitter accounts. Notorious hacker group OurMine is back at it, hacking social media profiles to let the world know just how easy it can be to get inside an account. Some of the tweets have already been taken down, but others are still visible to the millions of people who follow WWE accounts. Additionally, WWE's official Tumblr page was also compromised. Speaking with Mashable over email, a representative of OurMine claimed all the WWE accounts were linked to one profile. "We just hacked it using the head of WWE social media account," a representative said. "It is linked to all of WWE Superstars accounts — Twitter and Facebook." This isn't the first time OurMine has hacked a high-profile account. Last month, it hacked several Marvel-owned Twitter accounts. However, on its website, it offers commercial services including testing social media and email accounts for vulnerabilities.
