The following is a news release from Touch of Italy regarding a recent Facebook account compromise:
(September 14, 2026) Touch of Italy Hospitality Group is alerting customers, community members, and business partners that several of its business pages have been compromised and are currently outside the company’s administrative control. Since the compromise, unauthorized individuals have posted content to these pages that is inflammatory, inappropriate, and completely unrelated to Touch of Italy Hospitality Group and its affiliated properties.
Touch of Italy Hospitality Group wants to make absolutely clear that this content was not created, authorized, endorsed, or approved by the company. It does not reflect the views, opinions, or values of Touch of Italy Hospitality Group, its management, staff, or employees.
The company is actively working with Meta/Facebook and other relevant parties to regain full administrative control of the affected pages and have the unauthorized content removed. Until control of the pages has been restored, customers and members of the community are strongly encouraged not to engage with, respond to, or share content appearing on the compromised pages. The public should also be cautious of any messages, links, solicitations, or requests for information originating from those pages.
“We understand that people who have followed and supported our businesses may be confused or concerned by what they are seeing,” said a representative of Touch of Italy Hospitality Group. “We want our community to know unequivocally that these posts are not coming from us. We are working diligently to resolve the situation and regain control of our pages as quickly as possible.”
Touch of Italy Hospitality Group appreciates the patience, understanding, and continued support of its customers, employees, business partners, and the greater Delmarva community while the matter is being resolved.
Official updates regarding the situation will be communicated through company-controlled websites and other verified communication channels.
