It is believed that the French hacker who logged in US President's Twitter account has been arrested. It was further revealed that the French national has logged in to other important people's account as well.

The French police teamed up with FBI agents, to catch up on the 25 year old, "Hacker Croll", as he gained an easy entry to the Twitter accounts by using the answers to questions asked as part of the password reminder process on his huge victims' email accounts.

This is the same method which was applied in 2008 to gain access to the Yahoo account of former US vice-president hopeful, Sarah Palin.

The act in combination with Lily Allen, Britney Spears and Ashton Kutcher who has more than 4.6 million followers were also 'hacked'.

It was a matter of shock that the convict was unaware of any computer skills and still managed to crack the password. At present he is in the custody of French authorities and shall be extradited to the US national for hacking into military computers a few years ago, it is likely that he will escape the punishment.
