Reports indicate that malware is spreading on TikTok via DMs, taking over the user account.

The hacked accounts do not appear to be posting content, and it’s unclear how many have been affected.

TikTok spokesperson Alex Haurek said: "Our security team is aware of a potential exploit targeting a number of brand and celebrity accounts. We have taken measures to stop this attack and prevent it from happening in the future. We're working directly with affected account owners to restore access, if needed."
