Updated: OMG! TechCrunch has been Hacked!

Filed in: Security — January 27th, 2010

The popular tech blog, TechCrunch has been hacked!

The hacked TechCrunch site contains a text “what a fxxxing useless hack isn’t it. Bleh.” and a link to dupedb.com, illegal download site.

Here is the screenshot (taken on iPhone) of the hacked site.

Update: TechCrunch.com is back online as I’m writing this. No word about the hack yet.

Update 2: TechCrunch has confirmed the hack but yet be able to tell more about the hack.

    Oh over here I’m still seeing a blank page on TechCrunch with a “We’ll be back soon” message.

    By the way when I search for “techcrunch hacked” one of the top few results “LOL HACKED” still shows the same hacker message.
