Waseem Badami’s X account hacked

In an unexpected turn of events, renowned Pakistani television host Waseem Badami found himself at the center of a social media storm as his X account, formerly Twitter, fell victim to hacking.

So far Badami has not made any statement himself on his account’s breach, but another journalist and anchor Iqrar ul Hassan Syed has confirmed the hacking on X.

The kind of posts that has been coming from his account for the past hour or so would also lead one to believe that it is not the anchor behind those posts himself.

The posts sharply contrasted with Badami’s usual serious and professional online presence. The unidentified hacker’s first post came has a hello with a heart emoticon, soon followed by “Morning darling”.

Despite being glaringly obvious that the account has been hacked, the posts continued to leave Badami’s followers both baffled and entertained.

The person behind these posts then moved on to posts hinting at the possible revealing of a secret. So far the last post is an advice on staying truthful.

A bit ironic that someone is impersonating Badami and using his social media account while preaching truthfulness. The security breach has raised concerns, but regardless many users are playfully indulging in the tweets, posting responses and reactions to them.

The whole story is yet to come to light, as the fans and followers of Waseem Badami await a post by the anchor himself after recovering his account. The incident serves as a reminder of the vulnerability of even the most renowned personalities in the face of online security challenges.
