(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa D-O-T’s account on X — formerly known as Twitter — has been hacked. The D-O-T says social media users may notice a bit of a different spin on the agency’s account this (Monday) morning. It’s been taken over by what appears to be a cryptocurrency outfit. D-O-T officials say they have reached out to X to regain control of the account.
Federal data indicates 353 MILLION Americans had their social media accounts hacked last year.
