Celebrities Hacked: Jay-Z, Beyonce, Kim Kardashian And Others' Financial Details Posted Online (REPORT)
An exclusively reports that as many as 12 celebrities and political figures have been hacked and their financial information has ended up on an undisclosed website. Among these prominent figures are are Jay-Z and Beyonce, Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Mel Gibson and Ashton Kutcher.
Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden were also victims of the hacker, but the information gathered on the two of them is reportedly incomplete. Even LAPD Chief Charlie Beck was hacked.
The information, which was posted publicly but we are now unable to trace, includes social security numbers, mortgage amounts, credit card info, car loans and banking information.
The LAPD is investigating and the FBI is looking into it as well.
Exactly one year ago, Christopher Chaney, 35, of Jacksonville, Fla. pleaded guilty to hacking into the email accounts of more than 50 people in the entertainment industry. The authorities dubbed the investigation and his subsequent arrest "Operation Hackerazzi."
Christina Aguilera, Mila Kunis, and Scarlett Johansson fell victim to Chaney's hacking, and some very compromising photos even ended up online.
Johansson later explained that her leaked nude shots were meant for her then husband, Ryan Reynolds. Justin Timberlake also got dragged into it when the photos off of Kunis' phones were linked to him, including a compromising crotch shot.Timberlake denied having anything to do with the photos or being the one photographed.
Once again, it seems as though there's no job too big for a persistent hacker.
Requests for comment made to the reps of Jay-Z, Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Mel Gibson, and Ashton Kutcher were not immediately answered. Beyonce's publicist declined to comment.
The LAPD are currently looking into the matter.
