“Have mercy on orphans” – Kenyans beg hacker to return Kabarak University Facebook page
Kabarak University Facebook page hacker has promised to return the account once his demands are met.
The suspected Indonesian teenager has demanded to be given a certain amount of money before he surrenders the page.
“I also have another option you guys just give me 500 dollars and I’ll bring this page back, the offer is cheap for a big university,” he said.
At the current dollar to Kenyan shillings exchange rate, the amount translates to about Sh68,000.
Kabarak is a Christian university but the hacker has taken over the page making weird posts.
The last post by the official university was made on April 18 showing students during the exam period.
“Silent streets and focused minds. Kabarak University is known for its academic excellence and tranquil environment,” the post reads.
But two days ago the hacker changed the profile photo and started posting unexplained words and photos.
On Saturday the hacker posted a cryptic message on the page which has 46,000 followers.
“Hello everyone here I just want to clarify about this account that was hacked, to be honest, I was just having fun so don’t take the posts I publish seriously, once again I’m sorry,” he said.
Kenyans online are now having fun with the page hacker as others beg him to surrender the page back to the university.
