“Hey @finkd we got access to your Twitter & Instagram & Pinterest, we are just testing your security, please dm us,” the hackers wrote, in a now-deleted tweet

“Hey @finkd,” OurMine tweeted on Zuckerberg’s page on Sunday. “You were in Linkedin Database with the password ‘dadada’!’ ”

“No Facebook systems or accounts were accessed. The affected accounts have been re-secured,” a Facebook spokesperson said.

The hackers claimed that they found his password – “dadada” – in the details of stolen LinkedIn accounts which were leaked online last month. Beware its time to pay attention to your passwords.
