X Account Hacked by Social Engineering | Business and Finance News

from The Daily News Now! Business

Elon Musk’s X account got hacked—not by brute force, but by slick social engineering that fooled customer support into handing over access, bypassing even two-factor auth. The hacker took full control before Musk reclaimed it the same day, prompting new security measures. This isn’t an isolated glitch; AI-powered cyberattacks are surging across U.S. companies, proving even the most fortified digital doors can be picked with the right trick—and no system is truly invincible.
