Tesla’s site and Twitter account gets hacked

Hackers seem to have gotten into both Tesla’s website and official Twitter account. Around 5PM ET, tweets showed up on its page that suggest that the site was no longer handled by the company. It doesn’t seem like anything to grave but it was still an unsophisticated prank of sorts. They changed the account name to #RIPPRGANG and they even posted a number and said to call it to get a free car. Their site also seems to have been compromised. Tesla managed to get back control of both accounts.

Although, even Tesla’s founder Elon Musk got his personal account hacked into. That one seems to be in order as well.
