In addition to the main CNN Facebook account, which was hit just after 10 p.m. on Sunday, the group also hacked the official CNN International and the CNN Politics Facebook pages. 

In each case, the group left its logo, along with the message, "Hey, it's OurMine we are just testing your security, please contact us for more information," along with a contact email address and a link to the group's website.
