The mobile app for The New York Post was hacked on April Fool’s.
The New York Post is a respected tabloid newspaper. Users of its mobile app noticed strange push notifications on April 1 (April Fool’s Day of all days) containing multiple messages – some of which were Nirvana lyrics.
The app sent out messages that included “Heil President Donald Trump“, “Open your heart to those you do not understand and listen to all those you fear and look down upon”, and the lyrics “Take your time, hurry up, the choice is yours, but don’t be late…” from the Nirvana song ‘Come As You Are’.

The Associated Press recently reported that the strange messages that popped up from the New York Post app wasn’t an April Fool’s joke. The app had actually been hacked. The Post sent out a follow-up notification that read, “Our push alert notification system was compromised this evening. We are working to resolve the issue. Please accept our apologies.”
