Sauce Gardner Asks “Weird” People to Get Help After His Snapchat Gets Hacked

23-year-old Jets’ cornerback, Sauce Gardner, just finished off an impressive season with 57 tackles, 11 passes defended, and a forced fumble. However, a surprising twist occurred amidst his rising popularity. Gardner revealed on X, formerly known as Twitter, that his Snapchat account had been hacked. Although he was unfazed by the hacking, he seemed a little worried about the possible exposure of his personal memories from his college days stored in the “Snapchat” cache.

Sauce Gardner shared after two hours that the saga continued and he had received pictures from his college days via direct message. The Cincinnati Bearcats alum knew very well that the game was over, and he could very well land himself in trouble, responding with a perhaps nervous ‘GGs’. He also commented on the odd behavior of “weird” people worldwide in the same post.

As it turns out, the situation escalated a few hours later when he revealed that the hacker had breached not only his Snapchat but also his Twitter, Instagram, and emails. He eventually had to buy a new phone and number to address the security breach. He accepted the mistake he made by not changing the Snapchat password years ago, urging his fans, “Watch what links y’all click. These hackers getting smarter by the day.”

Famous people like Sauce Gardner himself indeed face difficulties in protecting themselves from increased attention and threats. However, even after implementing strong measures, they still find themselves vulnerable to such hacking attempts.
