Bears' Twitter account overrun Sunday morning by hacker

Error 0:

The Bears' Twitter account @ChicagoBears, with more than 1.8 million followers, was overtaken Sunday morning by hackers.

The first tweet indicated the team had been purchased by Saudi advisor Turki Alalshikh. That tweet was quickly deleted and replaced with two tweets announcing the hackers, OurMine, and sharing their email and website information.

The hackers then replied to a tweet from Detroit lions fan account @PrideofDetroit, which responded to one of their tweets asking if new ownership would trade Khalil Mack to the rivals.
