McAfee has his phone hacked
 
Blames Twitter

Security expert and Internet personality John McAfee has had his Twitter account hacked and used to promote lesser-known crypto-currencies.

McAfee pooh-poohed claims that the alleged incident undermined his security credentials saying he had no control over Twitter's security.

But he did admit that his mobile phone might have been compromised.

The social network offers two-factor authentication - in which a person must enter a code sent to a mobile phone in addition to a password to access an account - to avoid such incidents. McAfee told the Beeb that he had activated the option, but added that he believed the hacker had intercepted the authentication code.
