FIFA President Sepp Blatter is not the most popular figurehead in the world, which is one reason why his Twitter account was hacked by the Syrian Electronic Army on Monday, posting a number of tweets that have to do with the upcoming World Cup in Qatar.
According to Deadpspin.com, Blatter's twitter account along with the official one for the World Cup was hacked on Monday, with a number of tweets being put out that wrote on a conspiracy between the organization and Qatar and one that read "#Bribery #Murderer #Thief #Qatar" with the picture of the leader. The official handle for the event was also hacked, with tweets going out about Blatter stepping down for corruption charges as well as emails that showed a conspiracy about certain teams and FIFA.
