Hackers falsely ‘tweet’ Britney Spears’ death


Hackers using Twitpic, a South Carolina service that lets people trade pictures via Twitter, posted fake reports that Britney Spears and other celebrities died over the weekend.

The problem did not directly involve San Francisco-based Twitter, said Charleston, S.C.-based Twitpic Inc. on its company blog Monday. Twitpic isn’t owned by Twitter.
