Warren Sapp's Twitter account gets hijacked

On the list of folks whose Twitter accounts it might not be a good idea to hijack, Warren Sapp’s might be near the top.

But there’s someone out there who has thrown caution squarely into the wind (and put their very lives on the line), tapping into Sapp’s “@QBKilla” account — and locking him out of it.

The news comes from Sapp’s colleague at NFL Network, Rich Eisen.  And Rich points out that Sapp is “ticked.”

As Sapp should be.

But there’s a lesson in this for everyone else.  Make damn sure your Twitter password is something that no one else knows and that no one else can figure out.

Meanwhile, it looks like whoever assumed control of Sapp’s account has yet to start sending out any phony tweets.

But, hey, it’s still early in the day.

    How could anyone know if Warren’s Twitter account was hacked? So much cr@p gets spewed out of Warren’s mouth, nobody could probably tell any difference.

    I would gladly review Sapp’s security and set up some proper password control for him, as well as get all that malware etc. I charge less than most security consultants.

    Umm, I’m pretty sure people can hack accounts even if the password is a random string of gibberish.
    I’m sure that’s not the case with Warren though and his password was tokin420, but still….

    His account didn’t get hijacked. That big fat dirty dumbass forgot his own password.

    His password was probably “password”.

    Illegal tweeting…the world will end soon. It has to.

    I admit it – I hijacked his account. He can have it back if he will once again try to dance like Beyonce.

    Dummy probably just forgot his own password.

    What’s the password?
    1…..2…..3…..4………5!
    So the password is… one, two, three, four, five? That’s the stupidest combination I’ve ever heard in my life! The kind of thing an idiot would have on his luggage!
