Twitter user affiliated with IS claims to have hacked sensitive US officials’ accounts
A Twitter account supposedly managed by a supporter of the Islamic State terror group publishes a spreadsheet with the alleged names, email addresses, and passwords of hundreds of American military and government employees, Sky News reports.
The account urges members of the group to carry out attacks. Most of the names on the list are of people based inside the US and serve within the Air Force, Marines, NASA and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, according to Sky.
It is not clear whether the information is up to date.
