Kabarak University has regained access to its Facebook page which had been hacked.
The institution confirmed this in an update on the page on Tuesday, May 9, 2023, saying it now had full control of the account.
“#wearekabarak,” the University updated.
The hacker who claimed to be an IT student at a school in Jakarta, Indonesia had taken over the page posting memes for at least three days.
On Sunday, May 7, the suspected fraudster issued a demand to the institution asking for 500$(Ksh68,250) to surrender the page.
The hacker said the demand was too little for the university not to afford.
“I also have another option, you guys just give me 500$ , and I’ll bring this page back, the offer is cheap for a big university,” he posted on the page.
