Skypes blog and Twitter account hacked by Syrian Electronic Army

Syrian Electronic Army hijacks Skype’s blog and Twitter accounts. Skype’s official Twitter account, followed by over three million people, was also hijacked by the hackers. Skypes Facebook page was also compromised briefly – which adds more fuel to the fire that Skype screwed up by using the cardinal sin of using the same password for different sites. Skype is actually owned by Microsoft, and could be the latest victim of the notorious hacking group to be targeted by the SEA. Maybe Skype’s team would be sensible to investigate solutions such as two factor authentication in future.”]
