President of Sony Worldwide Studios, Shuhei Yoshida has had his twitter account hacked by the same team behind the prolific Pokemon Go hacks of late. The team known as “OurMine” is behind the hack and stresses that they do not wish to do harm but merely showing Yoshida that he needs to be better with his account security.
Update 2:
@GloriousDuck we are a security group, but we don’t like playstation

Update: In rather comical fashion, the hackers just posted a new tweet “#Xbox4Ever” on Shuhei’s account.
Hello Shuhei , it’s OurMine, please contact us https://t.co/rxxp5GUrms , to give your account back!

As of the time of writing this article it appears Yoshida still hasn’t regained access to his Twitter account and the hackers continue to call on him to contact them.
We’ll update you when Yoshida regains access to his account.

Wow, I knew this was Charlie the Fanboy by the title. And you didn’t disappoint, either.
” Well, when it comes to hacks it seems its just another day at the Sony HQ.”
If you’re the “head writer” for the Xbox division, why are you even writing about this?
