Hacker Exposes 20,000 FBI Employees

AMERICA- a horrific cyber-attack has occurred at FBI headquarters. 22,175 employees and 9,000 DHS agents have been hacked. All of their personal details have been released on twitter. This all happened on Super Bowl Sunday were the hacker released a message saying that he will send out the details just as the big game began. And he certainly did.

Just as the game started the infamous hacker released the information about all the employees and agents on that day. Or so they thought. He had given even more information on Monday. The hacker said, “This is not one hack. This is an ongoing hack against the United states government.” The hacker gave emails, Phone numbers and job titles. He has also said that he has stolen two hundred GB out of 1TB available but yet show it on social media. The 200 GB has more important details of the agents/employees like credit card details and military emails. But still the FBI has no proof if what he is saying is true.

There has been rumors that hacker is working in an organization that hacked the CIA’s director John Brennon email account in October. The hacker’s organization was called “crackers with attitude” (CWA). After the hack against John Brennon. The hackers targeted important government employees, such as US spy Chief James Clapper, a white house official, and lots of others.

The information that the hacker sent out was quoted with a rap song Long live Palestine, “ This is Palestine, Ramallah, West bank, Gaza, this is for the child who is searching that is searching for an answer.”

The question that was left wondering was how did he hack into a security that is so secure? Well he told Motherboard that he accessed the information through the Justice email account. He supposably tricked an employe into giving him a code to access the DoJ ( the Department of Justice and regulation) and that was were he found the details on the employes.

This hack against the Federal Bureau of investigation could one of the biggest of this decade. Lets all hope that the hacker will be caught and all the 20,000 employees can go back to their normal lives.
