Over the past week, a hacker who goes by the twitter handle @j5zlol claims to have hacked many high-profile musicians Twitter accounts from Keith Richards to the late Beatles’ George Harrison.
The NME reports, Harrison’s Twitter was hacked to alter his bio information to, “Hey George, follow @j5zlol when you see this and shoot me a DM. I’ll help you secure your accounts 🙂 I don’t want to cause you any harm, bud” on Tuesday.
@j5zlol claimed to have not know of Harrison’s death, tweeting: “Well shit I hacked someone and I didn’t even know they was dead.. my bad.”
