If you visited dolphinscheerleaders.com on a smartphone or tablet anytime in about the last 24 hours, you got a bit more than you bargained for. The site was hacked and forwarded mobile device users to a hard-core porn site.

According to GossipExtra, the glitch was in effect for 24 hours before it was finally fixed at 11 a.m. today. In fact, the Dolphins weren't even aware of the hack until the site notified them.

"We fixed the glitch, but we are surprised and disappointed with what happened," spokesman Harvey Greene told the gossip site. "It's disconcerting so see the content that was being displayed."

No word on what porn site was involved.

The team promises to investigate the situation and says it will press criminal charges if necessary.
