  • That's pretty funny
  • I bet Mark is a bit embarrassed by all this. I feel a little bad for the guy, because i got my ebay account hacked from my ex-gf and as a result my account got suspended....... not the same obviously but the point is it sucks.
  • My thoughts are this... anyone with the right skill set and determination can hack any website anywhere. It's just a matter of time. Pretty scary huh?
  • Wish the article posted more detail on how the attack was done. I'm curious now.
  • This hacker might want to watch out, Zuckerburg could bankroll a bunch of ex-delta forces guys to do a snatch and grab if he is annoyed enough. I honestly think in the grand scheme of things, this is amusing but a non-issue for him.

  • Nice job to the hacker I guess? It's just more publicity for Zuckerberg and FB anyway.
  • Mark is? He's richer than you and much smarter also! Any site can get hacked man.

    • The man built a website that has 500,000,000 users, and is a billionaire. He must be doing something right.

    • I never said that....What I said was he is richer and smarter than you. If you think he's a douche bag that's your gig. I think he is genius and I don't think you really can criticize someone who has elevated themselves to that kind of level.

      How do you know he's a douche bag? Do you know him personally? Are you one of the people that feels they got screwed out of a business that he created?
  • Well I hope the hacker can continue targeting Mark and Facebook and leave my little website in peace.

    Because I don't have the resources that he does.

    • Don't even get me started on the stupidity of putting your personal info
      on Facebook or any other "social site' on the net.

      The day I believe in the benevolence of a multi-billion dollar company is the day I start writing Santa Claus again.

      The info is worth a fortune, and that whole site just goes to show how many lemmings there are.

  • This is why you are always getting spam messages from your real "friends" on Facebook that they have never posted themselves.

    That's Facebook for ya...
  • Maybe this is a setup?

    He hacks his own site because in the pipeline has has this new software that users can install on their facebook pages that will make their pages encrypted and unbreakable. Just a thought.

    • That was my initial thought. I guess we'll see over the coming weeks if Facebook roll out some new protections methods.
    • Well, sure it can be!
  • So he got hacked? Now he will make sure that his FB will have a better fortification.
  • This is really an interesting topic. I could only say that mark really is a genius for making facebook and let us also thanks the twins for ideas.
  • If you have haters you are doing something right.

  • This is hilarious actually. I mean just think about it- Mark Zuckerberg's Facebook profile was hacked lol. Say what you want to, but this has pretty much sealed the verdict about Facebook account security.
  • Are you sure that is it original Mark Zuckerburg's FaceBook account?
  • Finally the person who hired only Hackers who he thinks are best programmers has been sting by them. A lesson for Kido I guess...
  • Never evah... evah-evah-evah-evah-evah. Put an overabundance of personal data on FB. It is far to easy to get that information. For instance lets say we have Mr. Jones is CEO of Acme Incorporated who has a very active facebook account. Mr. Jones also uses it to keep in touch with family and friends, so naturally he has put all his information such as name, birthday, hometown etc.

    Then we have Mi$kre@nt, a hacker who uses his skills to make him some pocket money. Mi$kre@nt decides that he is going to go after Mr. Jones' bank account. So, first he has to find out where Mr. Jones might do his banking. Mi$kre@nt then goes to Acme's website and discovers that Mr. Jones got his bachelor's degree from Weaksauce University class of 1979. Mi$kre@nt then makes up a phony facebook account using photos of an attractive woman around Mr. Jones' age and enters that she's an alumni of Weaksause U. (Goooo Fieldmice!) Mi$kre@nt sends Mr. Jones a friend request and (after the inevitable friend request acceptance) then has access to his photos, posts, and most importantly his facebook places. After trolling facebook places for a bit Mi$kre@nt notices that Mr. Jones uses Countdemoney Federal Credit Union for his banking.

    From there it's not that difficult for Mi$kre@nt to use social engineering tactics to guess passwords and multifactor authentication questions from Countdemoney FCU's online banking website. Mi$kre@nt initiates a fund transfer and BOOM. Easy money baby!
