“The amount of damage this could cause is very high,” said Douglas Schmidt, a computer science professor at Vanderbilt University. “These people could hold information gleaned from the hack for ransom in the future.”

范德比尔特大学计算机科学教授道格拉斯·施密特说：“这可能造成非常大的损害。这些人可以保存从此次入侵事件中收集到的信息，以便将来索取赎金。”

Twitter issued a statement approximately 90 minutes after scam messages began being sent out by Musk’s and Gates’ accounts, as the attack was ongoing.

在马斯克和盖茨的账户开始发送诈骗信息大约90分钟后，推特公司发布了一份声明，当时攻击仍在进行。

“We are aware of a security incident impacting accounts on Twitter,” the company said on Twitter. “We are investigating and taking steps to fix it. We will update everyone shortly.”

推特公司发推文表示：“我们注意到一起安全事件影响了推特上的账户。我们正在调查并采取措施修复。我们很快就会向大家发布最新消息。”

The company subsequently warned that some users would be unable to tweet or change their passwords as it worked to address the issue. The company appeared to be blocking verified users, whose accounts feature a blue checkmark to denote that Twitter has confirmed their identities, from tweeting.

该公司随后警告说，在解决这个问题的过程中，一些用户可能无法发推文或更改密码。该公司似乎在屏蔽已验证用户的账户，这些用户的账户上有一个蓝色的标记，表示推特公司已经确认了他们的身份。
