The Onion staff put their laughing-making on hold last week when the Syrian Electronic Army hacked its Twitter account — the latest in a growing list of publications invaded by the group. “In summary, they phished Onion employees’ Google Apps accounts via 3 separate methods,” the site’s tech team explained in a blog post. The slow, calculated attack began early this month, when the Syrian Electronic Army (SEA) sent emails to some of the site’s employees. The messages (example below) implored The Onion’s reporters to “Please read the following article for its importance,” with a link to what appeared to be a Washington Post story. [Interesting, the attackers modified their social engineered email attack to be a password reset email, after the Onion IT department told everyone to change their passwords.]
