Barack Obama’s Twitter, Facebook, Campaign website and Email Accounts hacked by Syrian Electronic Army

Syrian Electronic Army claims it has hacked President Barack Obama’s website, Twitter-Facebook accounts and access email accounts linked to Organizing For Action, the non-profit offshoot of Obama For America, Obama’s 2012 campaign operation. The attackers also compromised the URL shortening service that the President used to share links through social media (ShortSwitch.com) The compromised links directed users to a video called “Syria Facing Terrorism”, hosted on YouTube, which has since been removed. At the time of writing, the website no longer redirects visitors to the SEA’s website.
