Indian PM Modi’s Twitter handle briefly compromised

Indian Prime Minister Modi’s Twitter handle was briefly compromised.

Hoever, the account belonging to Indian PM Narendra Modi which has more than 73 million followers, was secured immediately.

The update was shared by Modi’s office in a tweet late on Saturday.

“The Twitter handle of PM @narendramodi was very briefly compromised. The matter was escalated to Twitter and the account has been immediately secured. In the brief period that the account was compromised, any Tweet shared must be ignored,” the tweet said.

Several Twitter users shared screenshots of the tweet put out from the Indian Prime Minister’s personal Twitter account, @narendramodi, showing it was compromised.

The screenshot read: “India has officially accepted bitcoin as legal tender. The government has officially bought 500 BTC” and would be “distributing them to all residents of the country.”
That tweet has since been deleted.
However, it’s not known yet who was behind these antics.
It should be noted that India does not recognize Bitcoin as legal tender.
