More than 50 tweets were published.
Mariah Carey’s Twitter was hacked to close out the year yesterday. Over 50 tweets were published before the page was temporarily shut down and the tweets were deleted. Still, the damage was done. At 6:30 PM ET, Mariah Carey’s account tweeted “Eminem can still hold this pu**y..” The hackers were obviously trying to stir the Eminem/Mariah Carey/Nick Cannon pot. Not too long after the first tweet, the hackers sent out another Eminem targetted message. “Eminem has a little penis” the account tweeted. After the initial jabs at the rapper, the hackers got bolder and began spewing out all types of garbage.

“As soon as we were made aware of the issue, we locked the compromised account and are currently investigating the situation,” a Twitter spokesperson told the folks over at USA Today. Several of the hacked tweets told users to follow third-party accounts and some posts also referenced the hacking group Chuckling Squad.
The Chucking Squad also took credit for hacking Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s account back in the Summer of 2019. “He was a member of Chuckling Squad but not anymore,” said a Chuckling Squad leader who goes by the name Debug. “He was an active member for us by providing celebs/public figure [phone] numbers and helped us hack them.”
Looks like the internet won’t be getting any chill for 2020. Thoughts?
