Lady Gaga and Nelly Furtado’s Twitter Accounts Hacked

Twitter followers were promised with "free" iPad 2s and Macbooks.
All of a sudden, Lady Gaga offered free iPad 2s to all her 17 million Monsters that follow her on Twitter. The first tweet that was published promised Macbooks to those who will click a shady link and share a few personal details. Then it was followed by another tweet with a promise to give out “free” iPad 2s.
Whoever did this obviously targeted Lady Gaga since the tweets published begun with the word “Monster,” the moniker Lady Gaga calls her fans.
The bitly stat of the bogus link indicated that approximately 7,000 people clicked it. However, bitly already posted a warning about it.
Another pop star, Nelly Furtado, has experienced the same issue on her Twitter account. Lady Gaga’s confirmed the issue and assured to her followers that it has been resolved.
