Ashton Kutcher to Twitter hacker: I'm coming for you

Ashton Kutcher has become a vigilante internet cop, threatening to track down a hacker who took over the "Two and a Half Men" star's Twitter and Foursquare accounts.

"So apparently someone thinks they are clever hacking my account. #lame," Kutcher wrote on Twitter but deleted on Monday. "Ok mr hacker, you only made one mistake. You hacked my Foursquare and I now know your address. Whoops...This is gonna be fun."

Later on, Kutcher wrote (and subsequently deleted) the message, "I'm coming for you my friend," with a picture of the hacker's supposed location.

"Big props to http://foursquare.com for your amazing security team!" Kutcher, who is also an investor in the company which allows one to post their current location, wrote on Monday night, presumably after the hacker had been apprehended.

One of the fake Twitter messages the hacker posted on Kutcher's account referenced the actor's alleged relationship with "Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist" screenwriter Lorene Scafaria, which both Kutcher and Scafaria vehemently denied.

"First official sleepover with my girl@lorenescafaria so maybe breakfast with everyone next time! (@Lorene's House)," read the hacker's Tweet.

Scafaria recently broke up with "The O.C." actor Adam Brody and Demi Moore, 49, announced that she had decided to end her six-year marriage to Kutcher, 33 on November 17.

The hacker also targeted "Modern Family" star Eric Stonestreet who told E! News' Ryan Seacrest that he only learned about the infraction when followers asked him why he was sending spam about diet pills.

When Seacrest asked the 40-year-old actor what one can do about hackers, Stonestreet said, "Hunt him down and punch them in the face."
