Truth seekers have gone into meltdown over three coded messages posted to the official WikiLeaks Twitter account.

The tweets, posted on February 4, contain brief questions asking “what, where and when is #Vault7?” alongside seemingly unrelated images.

Pictures of the "Doomsday seed vault" in Norway, a German salt mine containing Nazi loot and a US Air Force jet engine are included in the tweets.

Now conspiracy theorists have gone into overdrive trying to figure out the meaning of the ambiguous messages.

WikiLeaks founded Julian Assange is renowned for communicating on Twitter in seemingly incomprehensible posts.

One conspiracy theorist believes the tweets are a “warning of some terrible event coming whatever it may be, pole shift, asteroid, super volcano erupting, terrorist attack”.

Others suggested WikiLeaks could be preparing to release more potentially damning information about former US presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Alluding to the image of the Nazi gold, one person wrote: “There have been 6 downloadable Hillary Clinton drops from FBI vault.

“I think [WikiLeaks] are pointing to the next one, number 7 as being the hidden gold that the Nazis (bad guys) didn't want us to see.”

Another truther suggested the images could indicate WikiLeaks has found evidence of a secret “Nazi facility” in Antarctica with “crazy tech”.

They added: “Maybe they found ancient ruins under the ice with advanced tech.

“Maybe the WikiLeaks will expose a secret American facility there like Area 51.

“Either way, I'm guessing this all has to do with the Antarctica buzz lately.”

It‘s not the first time WikiLeaks speculation has bamboozled the internet.

Rumours that Assange is dead swelled after a long period of silence from the Aussie hacker.

He added fuel to the flames with an "ask me anything" session on the Reddit website in which he refused to offer proof of life.

Assange and WikiLeaks are accused of leaking material obtained by Russian hackers intent on helping Donald Trump win last year’s US election.
