Jeanie Buss is definitely not selling PS5’s.

The Los Angeles Lakers owner is extremely active on Twitter, but this week something was amiss. Jeanie posted two tweets that advertised a trio of Playstation 5s for sale. The post said that she was selling three PS5s and that all of the proceeds would go directly to charity. Those who purchased one would also have a chance to go to a Lakers game.

Two hours later, she followed it up with another tweet that advertised only one PS5 remaining. Whoever bought it would get flown out to have lunch with the Lakers family, it said.

See below:

The two tweets were obviously not from Buss. She got hacked and both tweets were deleted by early Tuesday morning.

And then another one appeared with the exact same copy as the first tweet, but only two PS5s were for sale this time.

Twitter reacted to all the tweets:

Of course Twitter was having a field day with this one.

Jeanie and the Lakers definitely are not having money troubles….
