UPDATE #4 – As of January 2 – 1.45am, the account has been cleared and both the RT and the tweets have been erased.
UPDATE #3 – As of 11.59 PM EEST, there are 1.065 retweets and 267 favorites. January 2 – 12.13am 2,205 retweets and 549 favs. 12.25am – 3,478 RT and 820 Favs.
UPDATE #2 – As of 11.39 PM EEST, another update has been posted.
Seems like the previous tweets are not wiped, and the profile information is still intact. Even if I’m not a fan of MS or Skype, I reported the tweets as the account being compromised. Good luck, MS.
UPDATE #1 – As of 11.25pm EEST, the official @Skype account has not been restored.
Browsing my timeline, just stumbled on the latest tweet of Skype. Seems like the official account of @Skype has just been hacked, as of January 1st, 2-2014 – 10.35pm EEST.
