Metropolitan Police security incident

In July 2019 a series of bizarre tweets appeared on the Twitter account of Scotland Yard, the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police Service in London. The account has 1.2 million followers. These messages were also repeated in press releases emailed out to journalists from the police force's official email address. On Saturday 20 July the police force indicated that the incident was caused by "unauthorized access" to its MyNewsDesk account which publishes content via the Met's website, Twitter account and email ID.
