OBAMA'S TWITTER ACCOUNT BREACHED: Hacker poses fake question and offers free gas.
*Someone hacked into President-elect Barack Obama's Twitter account and sent out false "tweets" offering $500 worth of free gas in exchange for filling out a questionnaire.
Twitter is a social networking service that allows users to keep in touch with people through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to the question: What are you doing today?
More than 155,000 users follow Obama's updates and received the following questionnaire: "What is your opinion on Barack Obama? Take the survey and possibly win $500 in free gas."
The site, which allows users only 140 characters per post, addressed the hacking situation in the following statement: "A number of high-profile Twitter accounts were compromised this morning, and fake/spam updates were sent on their behalf. We have identified the cause and blocked it. We are working to restore compromised accounts."
