"A self-proclaimed "hacker group" tweeted American Airlines while the plane was in mid-flight, claiming there were explosives on board.

The tweet reads: ".@AmericanAir We have been receiving reports that @j_smedley's plane #362 from DFW to SAN has explosives on-board, please look into this."

The Twitter handle, j_smedley belongs to Sony Online Entertainment President John Smedley.

Passengers said that Smedley was the target of the threat. They said he was on the plane after hackers claimed to have taken down some of Sony's servers Sunday morning."
