Stolen Ashley Madison user data published by hackers
Hackers who hit cheaters' dating site, Ashley Madison, published stolen customer data, experts said Tuesday.
The data is posted on what is known as the "dark web," a part of the Internet that can't be searched by Google or most common search engines. It also can only be viewed with a special Tor browser, according to Per Thorsheim, a cybersecurity expert in Norway. The information that was posted included customer names and credit card numbers, Thorsheim said. The amount of money they spent on the site was also posted.
he site, which is owned by Avid Life Media, is designed to help married people cheat on their spouses. Its slogan is ,"Life is short. Have an affair."
It said it's actively monitoring this situation and working with law enforcement in the United States and in Canada, where the site is based.
"This event is not an act of hacktivism, it is an act of criminality. It is an illegal action against the individual members of AshleyMadison.com," the site said. "The criminal, or criminals, involved in this act have appointed themselves as the moral judge, juror, and executioner, seeing fit to impose a personal notion of virtue on all of society."
