The Twitter accounts of 130 users were targeted as part of a bitcoin scam, the social media company said on Thursday, wherein attackers took over the accounts of prominent users including Barack Obama, Elon Musk, Kanye West, Bill Gates, and Jeff Bezos as part of a widespread hack.
“For a small subset of these accounts, the attackers were able to gain control of the accounts and then send Tweets from those accounts,” wrote the Twitter Support account, without specifying how many accounts the attackers were able to control.
