Urgent: My account was hacked. Twitter has been notified. The coin of the day tweet was not me. As you all know... I am not doing a coin of the day anymore!!!!
3:04 PM - 27 Dec 2017

The antivirus guy got hacked!

Like the other member said that he is not going to tell you coin of the day anymore but the will tell you coin of the week. LOL
I like such joke. The people who follow his twitter just to get coin of the day then now you can stop. Do own reasearch and prediction are more recommended.

He's currently calling a lot of coins and telling people to buy buy buy. He's obviously hacked so turn of your bots and don't follow his calls for now.

Yes, I was surprised when he suddenly recommended so many tokens, so I didn't follow him on this day, and sure enough, his account was stolen.

From the very beginning it was known that in the end he would say it. I wanted to hear the truth from the representatives of Twitter. Is his account realy hacked?

This was the #1 objective of the week for hackers. Although I'm sure he is laughing on his chair and wasn't hacked. For these who didn't get baited it was a decent opportunity to make some cash in the artificial 'pump;

All the more reason to do your own research before you invest.

When he tweet consecutively with those coins like verge and siacoin. I have seen those post on social media and people are feasting to do buy orders on those coins. I'm starting to have some doubts with what he said about bitcoin to reach $1,000,000 on 2020. I'm good if bitcoin will reach $50,000 by that time. I hope he'll stop this pump and dump scene and let the people decide for their coins.

How stupid for those are following mcafee's tweet just give an advice to buy and buy more various altcoin without any explanation about that, basically that's just like telling another to buy shitcoin and then pump it for the hackers. Glad to see the McAfee account has back again.

For those are following it just try to do your own research about that rather than follow the hacker.
But a lot of people are spreading it in here.

How do we know his account was hacked? Maybe he's just making shit up and trolling people...

Yes, he just posted on twitter that his account was hacked and twitter notified him that his account was hacked and he said the coins posted as tweets were not from him because he is not going to give anymore coin of the day now he will give coin of the week that he announced yesterday. That is why I recommend all of you to only buy coins which you feel is good and buy with your own research and do not rely on others.

Hahahha, funny. After fail to predict the coin will goes up and currently now the coin just jump to the deep hole, then now he said that his twitter was hacked? LoL
how if the coin goes up? Then he will said another thing.
Just follow your decision when trading and never because him.

I happened to be on Twitter and witness it all live. After the first couple of Tweets I knew he had been hacked and plus he was talking like a 23 year old. It was crazy. Also crazy. "McAfee" got hacked. You would think he would have decent security.

this is really sad for a classmate of john mcafee, we know he works in what field, but why his social media account is so vulnerable to being hacked. if this is true, I think 2x to use the services of its products.

Already confirmed his official account has been hacked. Does the quick tweet affected some pumps?

Yes it did, BAT got pumped pretty hard. But I think people also have bots linked to his calls that auto buy when he says his coin, so I suppose some people lost a lot of money today.
