Spotify Hack

In June 2023, Daniel’s official Spotify was hacked by unknown trolls. They continue to leave odd messages for Daniel as well as change things such as artist playlists. It is still unclear who is behind this.

JoJo Siwa

When the page was first hacked, it showed a photo of JoJo Siwa with a message. The photo was of JoJo Siwa making a peace sign with her hands and the text-

“This page has been

hacked by JoJo Siwa

Suck my queef Daniel”

*yes, formatted like that**

A screenshot can be found here.

Jared Fogle

The second hacked photo is of someone identified as “Jared Fogle” and the caption

“This page has been

Hacked by Jared

Fogle I will return

It to Daniel if he

Pays me $1500”

A screenshot can be found here.

Hitler

The third photo was added on June 14, 2023. It is a photo of Hitler. Unlike the others, it has no caption.

A screenshot can be found here.

Return To Normal

Later on June 15, 2023, the profile picture was once again changed, now just to an average photo of Daniel. The Verified Artist text was more (?) normal, just being "Grace vanderwaal". On the 16th, it was changed back to Hitler (see above). Sometime after that but before the 20th the photo was returned to Daniel, and the VAT was removed again.

First VAT

The below is copy/pasted from the Spotify as it is too big to screenshot. (not really but maybe a little Nsfw).

Second VAT

After the photo was set back to Daniel, the VAT changed to "Grace vanderwaal".

About a day later, the VAT was wiped.

Daniel's Response

Daniel has responded several times on his YouTube community tab.

Responses

"Whoever has hacked my Spotify account will be crushed to dust"

** I cannot find this comment due to sheer volume of posts, but in responses Daniel claimed he would "handle them in the courtroom".
