Report: LulzSec hacking group releases Xbox Live, Facebook login info

4.4
Adding to the list of game-related companies it has attacked, LulzSec yesterday claimed to have stolen and leaked the login and password information for approximately 62,000 "internet accounts," reports the CBC. The stolen info is said to comprise logins/passwords from Facebook, Twitter, "dating sites," PayPal and, notoriously, Xbox Live. It is also claimed that the majority of accounts are from the United states, though several other countries are named in the report.

The account database info is still currently available through the LulzSec website (though we'd suggest not visiting) -- various folks on Twitter responding to the group claim to have done a variety of things with the information, from having a large pack of condoms delivered to an elderly woman, to one person saying they bilked a PayPal account for £250 ($404).

Earlier this week, the group attacked and successfully took down a handful of game industry websites, including EVE Online, Minecraft and The Escapist. All three sites quickly recovered and have been online since. Microsoft has yet to respond to request for comment on yesterday evening's alleged breach.

Dude you have no idea what you even talking about! These people came from Anonymous but they like to take their hacking to the extreme! They do it random because if you follow their twitter they are taking requests for Ddos attacks. But if any sites that seem stupid or sites that they would never hack are requested they leak your number to the internet. Call them Anonymous fanboys if you want but they are Anon Extremists in my opinion.


Woah, settle down, i was kidding and i agree with you on the fact that they are taking it to the extreme.

How are they fanboys? Both hacking groups have been around for a while. And what does your stepdad touching you in inappropriate places have to do with hacking. Most people do it for the Lulz Ex. LulzSec.

HideR LulzSec FTW!
These guys are great!
I follow them on twitter to keep up with all of there lulzy releases.



Sorry to tell u that there a bunch of low life bastards. Shoot them ****.and if you think following them is great, you should hang yourself.this is not cool or funny. Immature **** thinking there are amazing doing this.



Its great because they do it for the lulz.
They do it to make nerds like you rage at your computer while they get there lulz.

Im pretty sure stealing people's personal information, credit cards, etc. isnt funny and is punishable by law (up to 50 years in prison). Hey, let me steal your parents and/or your credit card and buy a house with it, then we'll see whose laughing...
