SCREENGRAB FROM MAINE MENDOZA’S TWITTER ACCOUNT
Maine Mendoza of the hit love team “AlDub” has regained access to her Twitter account which was hacked by a group claiming to be from Anonymous Philippines.
In a tweet by Unbox PH founder Carlo Ople Tuesday afternoon, he said that Twitter has resolved the issue.
“Ok na guys. Check her account. The tweets from hackers were deleted and she’s in control of it again. @mainecdm #ALDUBTheVisitor,” he said.
Ople asked the help of Twitter executives so that Mendoza can access her account again.

“Maine’s account was not ‘returned’ by the hackers. It was reported & locked down by Twitter. Now pending reactivation. #ALDUBTheVisitor,” he said.
Shortly after Ople sent his tweet, Mendoza posted a message to her followers on her Twitter account:
She said: “Bawal ang sad, dapat happy. Kamusta kayo? Nagbabalik, Yaya Dub.”
Meanwhile, the hacker collective responsible for the hacking has apologized to Mendoza and her fans.
In a post on their Facebook page, a member of Anonymous Philippines said that they just want to invite people to join their “Million Mask March” on Nov. 5 which will be held in Mendiola.
“Paumanhin po sa pag gamit namin sa account ni YAYA DUB. wala po kaming masamang intensyon. we use the internet to communicate with you. nais lang namin magparating ng mahalagang mensahe.”
“hindi ito ang tamang panahon para pagtalunan kung bakit namin ginawa ang isang bagay. siguro ang dapat nyong isipin e kung ano yung nagtulak sa amin para gawin yun. HINDI NYO PO KAMI KAAWAY,” the post read.
“Ms.Maine, ma’am, pasensya na po idol. alam po namin na isa ka sa mga unang makakaintindi sa amin at salamat,” it added.
(We apologize for our use of the account of Yaya Dub. We have no ill intentions. We use the Internet to communicate with you. We only want to send an important message.)
(This is not the right time to argue about why we are doing a certain thing. Perhaps what you should consider is what pushed us to do this thing. We are not the enemy.)
(Ms. Maine, ma’am, we apologize, idol. We know that you are among those who will understand us, thank you.)
As of posting time, the tweets posted by Anonymous Philippines have been deleted.
Mendoza has 2.4 million followers on Twitter. AJH/CDG
