Security alert [12/19/2016]: http://Ethereum.org Forums Database Compromised
Who knows what exactly has happened yet, but better be safe than sorry.
EDIT - more info on a blogpost by ethereum: https://blog.ethereum.org/2016/12/19/security-alert-12192016-ethereum-org-forums-database-compromised/

This might be something related to it, Edit: maybe the Twitter account is hacked?
