Miley Cyrus' YouTube account has been hacked, and the hacker uploaded a video clip claiming the 'Hannah Montana' actress had died.

The death rumour, which has now been successfully put to an end, depicted the Disney starlet's "message" to fans while her song lingered in the background.

"Miley died this morning after being hit by a drunk driver. She always told us if anything ever happened to her then tell her loyal fans first before the public. R.I.P Miley, we'll never forget you!" the Daily Telegraph quoted the fake video as saying.

 

The incident came soon after the FBI raided the house of a teen hacker, who had boasted to his buddies about flooding the Internet with the personal pictures of the young actress.

The 15-year-old Miley had reportedly feared another hacking attempt after the investigators informed her that a hacker might have broadcasted her personal information in spam mailings.
