AceShowbiz - Rappers Migos have fallen victim to a cyber criminal after Takeoff's Twitter account was hacked and Quavo's cell phone number was leaked online.
The "MotorSport" hitmakers had a rough start to 2019 after a hacker took control of Takeoff's social media account early on Wednesday, January 02, and began posting a series of rude messages targetting the likes of recent tour mate Drake, incarcerated rapper Tekashi69 (6ix9ine), and bandmate Offset's estranged wife Cardi B.
They then appeared to gain access to his uncle Quavo's phone number and posted the information online, while also teasing the unauthorised release of Migos' upcoming album, "Culture III".

The hacker told fans to follow two other Twitter accounts if they wanted the new music to be leaked, but it appears Takeoff's representatives managed to contact platform officials and have the perpetrator blocked from posting anything further on his profile.
The unsanctioned tweets have since also been removed from Takeoff's timeline.
