Facebook Inc.\u2019s corporate account on Twitter appears to have been hacked.<\/p>\n
The official account @Facebook on Friday sent out a tweet saying, \u201cHi, we are O u r M i n e. Well, even Facebook is hackable but at least their security better than Twitter.\u201d<\/p>\n
Facebook didn\u2019t immediately respond to requests for comment, and the tweet was removed quickly.<\/p>\n
The group OurMine has been linked to other Twitter hacks, most recently the official accounts for more than a dozen National Football League teams.<\/p>\n
The group also took credit for a hack of Twitter Chief Executive Officer Jack Dorsey\u2019s account last year. When it hacks accounts, OurMine markets its security services.<\/p>\n
In a statement following the post\u2019s removal, Twitter Inc. confirmed the @Facebook account was hacked and said it was breached via a third-party platform.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs soon as we were made aware of the issue, we locked the compromised account and are working closely with our partners at Facebook to restore them,\u201d a representative said.<\/p>\n
Facebook said in a Twitter post: “Some of our corporate social accounts were briefly hacked but we have secured and restored access.”<\/p>\n
