Hackers made the strange demand of Lebanese-American former adult film actress Mia Khalifa to be made an education advisor in Egypt.
While the identity of the hackers are unknown, they managed to compromise the Beheira province education directorate’s Facebook page and had taken control of it to make their demand, Egyptian newspaper Al-Masry Al-Youm reported.
The post that the hackers had written on Sunday (August 14) stated: “We demand Minister of Education Dr Reda Hegazy appoint Dr Mia Khalifa as an advisor for educational development.”

According to the outlet, the post included a photo of the 29-year-old former adult actress and media personality.
Khalifa was referred to as a “Dr” in the initial post by the hackers, and while she did obtain a bachelor’s degree in history from the University of Texas, there is no confirmed news on whether she has received a doctorate.

In a cabinet reshuffle in Egypt, Hegazy was promoted to education minister from deputy education minister for teachers’ affairs.
The Beheira education directorate on Sunday published an “urgent notice” from its public relations and media department after regaining control of the Facebook page from the unknown hackers.
The notice read: “The media page of the directorate was hacked by an unknown party, and legal measures have been taken in this regard.
“A report has been made to the competent security authorities.”

An apology was issued by the media department to individuals following the Facebook page, as they put out a warning against adding “any accounts impersonating the names of educational leaders”.
However, an unfortunate mispelling of a letter in the word “apology” in Arabic by the directorate caused users to criticise Hegazy’s mistake.
“If you weren’t the education directorate, how would you have written it?!” one user asked in response.
