💨 Abstract

On May 9, Pakistan's Ministry of Economic Affairs' X account was hacked, posting a fake appeal for international loans due to alleged heavy losses from tensions with India. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting confirmed the breach and the account was to be deactivated. The hacked post coincided with the Pakistan Stock Exchange's significant downturn and an IMF meeting regarding a $7 billion loan. India's Press Information Bureau commented on the incident, criticizing Pakistan's appeal.
