Apparently, people needed to be told that it's not real:

The wordings in the tweet felt super familiar so I had to double check but I think WWE's Mick Foley was hacked in the exact same fashion, except replace the last words with something else.

It's probably Jeanie just trying to recoup some money after seeing Talent Horton-Tucker' Drew League stats

They briefly had Mick Foley's twitter account yesterday (retired pro wrestler).

Sucks for the ppl getting hacked and gullible ppl but man. It's kinda funny sometimes too.

Come on it's easier to get PS5s now right?

But I guess if regular gamers haven't seen PS5s in stores, they would be desperate for this.

No.

I have yet to see a single PS5 inside of a retail store. Only got mine from a PS Direct Invite-- and it was the second invite to boot.

Might as well be a unicorn.

I'm not actively looking for them, but yeah retail seems nonexistent with PS Direct being the only availability I've seen. Has Amazon gotten any restock?

This happened to Eddie Johnson like 3 times. Hackers seem to target the older NBA personalities.

Any team would gladly take Westbrook if Lakers offered 3 PS5 with it. Just saying.

It would help if famous people made their access codes harder for hackers to guess. I wouldn't be surprised if Jeannie Buss' password was KobeBryant824.... for everything.
