McDonald's India X Account Hacked by Alleged Unpaid Intern

McDonald's India's official X account was hacked on September 6, sparking widespread attention on social media.

An anonymous post claimed to be from an unpaid intern working at McDonald's, alleging that their boss, Amit Joshi, had not paid them since December 2025.

The person stated they were forced to take two extra jobs and manage several McDonald's accounts in Asia due to the unpaid wages.

However, a follow-up post from the same account revealed a photo claiming to be of their boss, Amit Joshi, taken during a cricket match.

Later, another post appeared, seemingly claiming that the whole thing was fake and included hashtags #fakenews and #memecoin.
