Celebrities Hacked 2013: Beyonce, Jay-Z, Kim Kardashian, Michelle Obama, Ashton Kutcher & More Personal Info Leaked (REPORT)
The personal and sensitive information of first lady Michelle Obama, vice president Joe Biden and an extensive list of celebrities were hacked into and leaked online in a mass dump called "doxxing" on Monday, according to TMZ.
Authorities revealed that there has been a security breach of personal data, including social security numbers, financial and credit reports for top government officials in the White House, many celebrities in entertainment as well as the head of the Los Angeles police department and the head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, according to Mail Online.
FBI Director Robert Mueller and Los Angeles police chief Charlie Beck were included in Monday's massive leak that also disclosed sensitive information that belongs to Beyonce, her husband Jay-Z, Kim Kardashian, Britney Spears, Mel Gibson, Ashton Kutcher, Paris Hilton, Donald Trump and Attorney General Eric Holder. These celebrities are just some of the names revealed in a partial list of at least 17 people whose information were hacked.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sarah Palin and Hulk Hogan's names were added to the extensive list on Tuesday.
The website that posted the personal data of those listed, The Secret Files, gradually revealed their information throughout the day. The site featured the internet suffix associated with the Soviet Union which indicates that the hackers may be Russian and included an anti-police message. It also featured a headline with a quote from Showtime's TV show Dexter.
"If you believe that God makes miracles, you have to wonder if Satan has a few up his sleeve," was allegedly written on the website.
The disclosure of the vice president's personal information was limited while the leak of the first lady's personal data was much more extensive, according to TMZ. The mass cyber attack listed her social security number, credit report and credit card details as well as her banking and mortgage information. The website also posted the following comment alongside with Obama's information: "Blame your husband, we still love you, Michelle."
A Secret Service spokesman confirmed the investigation but did not comment.
