ISIS Sympathizers "Hack" U.S. CentCom Social Media Accounts - Claim to have hacked Pentagon

Wow....can't quite read all the docs in the pics, but if they are posting military records of names and addresses as well as family members, this is really not good. While it may be getting posted on pastebin and whatnot, my guess is that they are also distributing it among the known IS websites and whatnot trying to get more lone-wolf attacks to occur.

Not good.

And yeah, this has to be egg in the face for Obama right now after just talking about cyber security in the US.....funny timing, but not a funny subject. Sadly, I actually fear that these lists will truly be used by terrorists to carry out attacks on the ones listed.

whoops, wrong thing.

I see a worrying trend.... and these guys have names and addresses of former military personnel and their families names apparently.

This year its getting ugly.

Have any of you looked at these? They're crazy.

Please: NEVER post any of the obtained documents to ATS.

There was a hacking group that was closley associated with MDL (muslim defence league) they managed to take over a lot of EDL pages on facebook, shut down their main page and I think they attacked their finances Z squad or Z corps or something similar
I know this is a long way away from hacking the US government But the MDL where along way away from ISIS, maybe an old Zsquad member has taken up the call with IS

just my two peneths worth

They have done. It says so here:

news.sky.com...

Images were also posted showing documents containing the contact details of current and retired military officers, including home addresses and email accounts.

Cue internet crackdown.

How convenient.

You stole the words out of my mouth.

Wasn't planning on it, just wondering what you guys think on what you've seen.

This is huge. Seriously huge. It will mean a hit in recruitment into our military. People won't volunteer if they know their families will be at risk. If the administration poo-poos this and calls it just a 'cyber crime' or that it's just an 'occupational hazard' instead of what it is ... a radical Islamic terrorist hit against the USA .. I'll puke.

They will say, "Trust us we are with the government and we are here to help secure your internet."

From what I saw -- just lists, then backed far away -- it appears to make the Snowden leaks look like silly games in comparison.

The seriousness of this appears to be beyond epic.

I hope I'm wrong.

While drumming up more hate for Muslims.

Ugh.

Its on local fox ABC and NBC twitter now

Just because a password was set to USAR0CKS! or something just as weak doesn't mean anything.

Let's wait and see if they release anything really of value before we get worried.

Well if anything is makes its way out, i hope the ''Non-Terrestrial Officers'' Doucument see's the light of day. Anybody who followed the Gary Mckinnon Story will know what that means.

If this is the real deal and IS has actually done this hacking, things are going to get very ugly, very quickly.

If this is the defense department hacking itself to justify further military actions, they've sunk to a new low.

They can call it whatever they want, but if a single one of the officers or their family that are listed are harmed, it will DEFINITELY wreak havoc on the recruiting efforts of the US military.

They must have been in their systems for a bit of time though I would think, since this is a concerted effort to release these docs at the same time as the take over of the Twitter and YouTube accounts. Who knows how much more they have and plan to release.....

Can't really read the China or NK docs, but if they have any detailing of advanced military action, this will not bode well for the US. I am sure that China and NK have seen these docs at this point....and likely are not very happy about them.

This IS a pretty serious breach. It could a turning point.

I really hope respective governments remain calm.
