Lady Gaga’s Twitter Compromised, 17M Followers Promised To Get Free iPad 2s


It seems that popular pop star Lady Gaga has became a target of cyber criminals. Near about five months ago the official site of Lady Gaga was hacked also it has been reported that personal data of Lady Gaga's fan has been stolen by the hacker. After that now she is again facing cyber problem. This time the official twitter of Lady Gaga has been hacked. The singer, who boasts more than 17 million followers, posted a tweet earlier this morning offering up a free iPad2 to little monsters as Christmas presents. 

The hacked tweet read as follows: “Monsters, I’m giving away FREE iPad2′s to each one of you in the spirit of the holidays :) Go to http://bit.ly/s5MTqM to receive one!”

Warning:- Do not click the link included in the tweet, as it’s not valid and could cause damage to your computer.

And if you grab a calculator, like one of our savvy PopCrush staffers did, and do the math, if Gaga bought each of her followers an iPad2, it would cost her $8,538,981,313. Yes, over 8 billion bucks. On the flip side, there’s also no way Apple could stay in business by comping Gaga that many tablets, either. If Apple crumbles, our economy does, too.
