Singer Shreya Ghoshal on Saturday said that her X account has been hacked and warned fans not to access any link sent from her profile on the microblogging site.
Ghoshal shared a post on her Instagram handle, saying that her X account was hacked on February 13 and she has been trying to get it restored ever since.
”Hello fans and friends. My Twitter / X account is hacked since February 13th. I have tried every thing in my capacity to reach out to the X team. But there has been no response beyond a few auto generated responses," the 40-year-old singer wrote.
Ghoshal said she can’t even delete her account as she is unable to access it.
"Please don’t click on any link or believe any message written from that account. They are all spams and fishing links. I will update personally through a video if the account is recovered and is safe," she added.
Earlier this year, actor Swara Bhasker's X (formerly Twitter) account was hacked, causing concern among her fans and followers. The actor took to social media to inform everyone about the breach, and her account was eventually restored after a series of efforts.
More recently, comedian Tanmay Bhatt’s X account was also compromised, adding to the growing concerns over account security. Like Swara, Tanmay shared the news with his followers and urged them not to click on any links or messages originating from his account. The hacker used the account to send out spam links and phishing attempts.
