Putnam County Sheriff's Office creates new Facebook page after hack

The Putnam County Sheriff’s Department has its new Facebook page up and running.

 

A hacker seized control of the department’s previous page.  The page was renamed 'Street Boxing' with a profile picture of a female boxer and a boxing video.

 

The department took to Twitter while efforts were made to resolve the issue and gain back the page.  Those efforts proved unsuccessful which led to the creation of a new Facebook page instead. 

 

The Putnam County Sheriff’s Office lost thousands of followers in the process.
