OurMine Security Group is a security hacker group. They use hacked celebrity internet accounts to advertise their commercial services.
In 2016, they hacked the Twitter accounts of co-founder Jimmy Wales,Pokémon Go creator John Hanke, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey,Google CEO Sundar Pichai, and Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg, whose Pinterest was also hacked. In addition to social media accounts, the group has hacked the website TechCrunch. OurMine's claim of being a "White Hat" is condemned by many users due to unauthorized access of accounts and vandalism.
In October 2016, BuzzFeed published an article linking the OurMine group to a Saudi Arabian teenager using the name Ahmad Makki on social media. OurMine denied the allegations, claiming that Makki was only a "fan" of the group. One day after the article's publication, OurMine infiltrated BuzzFeed's website and altered the content of several posts to read "Hacked By OurMine".
Other hacks in 2016 include the Twitter accounts of Sony President Shuhei Yoshida; the global account of Jimmy Wales; the Twitter accounts of Netflix and Marvel;; the Twitter accounts of Sony Music Global; the Instagram accounts of National Geographic; and the Twitter accounts of National Geographic Photography.
