'Someone hacked my account' — Makhadzi explains 'dodgy' social media post

Makhadzi had some explaining to do after fans spotted shady posts on social media.  

Taking to her Twitter timeline the Limpopo-born musician said her account was back in her hands after it was “hacked”. 

The Twitter post asked women with beautiful bodies to call a number shared on the post. It has since been deleted and the Ghanama hitmaker said she was shocked. 

“Guys, I was also shocked about the post. Someone hacked my account. I finally got my account back,” she tweeted.

The explanation drew mixed reactions, with some questioning the claim.

“Not to say I’ll never be hacked but how does it work? They hack your phone to send a post and then unhack immediately when done? No leaking of your DMs even ... they just want to deliver a message?” questioned one tweep

“Unfortunately these posts are also on Facebook. Is your Facebook also hacked?” asked another Twitter user. 

Makhadzi has been a victim of social media trolls in the past, with some shading her for poor grammar.

“Who is tweeting on your behalf? Where are your normal tweets that have no punctuation and a few dire grammatical errors that we’ve come to love? Please come back,” posted one user.
