What is OurMine? / Facts

The security hacking group uses hacked celebrity internet accounts to advertise their commercial services
In 2016, they hacked the Twitter accounts of Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales, Pokémon Go creator John Hanke, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, and Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg, whose Pinterest was also hacked
In addition to social media accounts, the group has hacked the website TechCrunch
In October 2016, BuzzFeed published an article linking the OurMine group to a Saudi Arabian teenager using the name Ahmad Makki on social media
OurMine denied the allegations, claiming that Makki was only a "fan" of the group
One day after the article's publication, OurMine infiltrated BuzzFeed's website and altered the content of several posts to read "Hacked By OurMine"
On 11 November 2016, Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales' official Wikimedia global account was compromised, an act for which the hacker group claimed responsibility on their website
On 1 April 2017, OurMine hacked into the YouTube network Omnia Media gaining access to numerous channels
The group changed the titles and descriptions of videos for over 300 popular YouTube accounts
The video descriptions linked directly to OurMine's website
Another attack was carried out on 13 April 2017, with various YouTube channels from the Studio71 network having their video titles and descriptions changed; the group claims it was the "biggest hack in YouTube history"
The video titles contained "#OurMine" and a link to a video on their YouTube channel, which was promptly terminated
