Donald Trump Jr. shared shocking tweets amid a rumoured hack.
It appears the former president's son had his X (formerly Twitter) account hacked on 20 September. And if it wasn't hacked, it certainly looks dodgy.
It looked like something was up when Trump Jr. began sharing a string of bizarre and shocking tweets, including writing that his father Donald Trump has died.
The tweet read: "I'm sad to announce, my father Donald Trump has passed away. I will be running for president in 2024."

Piers Morgan shared it, writing: "This is *probably* fake news."
Quickly after this tweet, users began to presume Trump Jr. had been hacked, with his tweets following it being wilder and wilder, before they were all eventually deleted.
More of the tweets claimed: "This just in: North Korea is about to get smoked."
A third tweet read 'f**k @JoeBiden', going on to call the POTUS the n-word.
Then another suggested: "Some interesting messages with Jeffrey Epstein...”
Epstein was a convicted sex offender, who died by suicide in his jail cell back in 2019 while awaiting trial.
Another even slams: "I also f**ked your girl btw @LoganPaul."
And one said: "Richard Heart is innocent, when I become president I am going to burn the SEC."
Heart is a cryptocurrency influencer who was charged with fraud by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) earlier this year.
Though these bizarre tweets have since been deleted from Trump Jr.'s account, the one about his dad being dead was up for over half an hour before being removed
He is yet to release a statement or follow-up tweet confirming just what happened for these wild claims to be sent out.
His younger brother, Eric, wrote on Twitter: "I don’t want @DonaldJTrumpJr to get his account back - this is all too entertaining."
In a total slam, he even added: "What was @donaldtrumpjr password? Don2024?"
The Trump Organization told UNILAD: "Don's Twitter was obviously hacked."
