Donald Trump is the latest high-profile victim of a Twitter hack job.
Just before noon EST on Thursday, Trump's account, @realDonaldTrump, tweeted a line from Will.I.Am's "Scream & Shout (Remix)." The lyrics in question come from Lil' Wayne's verse in the song.
The tweet was retweeted nearly 1,000 times in just a few minutes before it was deleted. About 15 minutes later, Trump's account tweeted the following explanation.
My Twitter has been seriously hacked--- and we are looking for the perpetrators.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 21, 2013
Hacked Twitter accounts have been popping up all week, starting on Monday with Burger King's account. Jeep was the next victim on Tuesday morning. The hacking had been getting so much attention, MTV and BET pretended to hack each other's accounts as a publicity stunt.
There's no specific information on exactly how Trump's people will go about "looking for the perpetrators."
