Twitter confirmed on Friday that the two official accounts of the giant social networking site Facebook were exposed.
A Twitter spokesman said in an emailed statement that the two accounts had been compromised through a third platform.
“As soon as we became aware of this issue, we closed the two hijacking accounts and are working closely with our Facebook partners to restore them,” Reuters quoted a Twitter spokesman as saying.
Twitter CEO Jacques Dorsey’s account was hacked in August, allowing an unauthorized person to send public tweets including racial abuse and obscene words to his four million followers before Twitter secured the account.
