Quote:LulzSec, the hacker group that came to light in early June, continued its Internet rampage on Thursday by posting the details of about 62,000 random usernames and passwords.

"And as always, LulzSec delivers: mediafire.com/?9em5xp7r0rd2y 62,000+ emails/passwords just for you. Enjoy," the group posted to its Twitter account on Thursday morning. The link connected users to a list of usernames and passwords, which was subsequently removed by Mediafire.

LulzSec reposted the list on Thursday afternoon.

"These are random assortments from a collection, so don't ask which site they're from or how old they are, because we have no idea," the group said. "We also can't confirm what percentage still work, but be creative or something."

The group also retweeted a few tweets by users who apparently had either taken advantage of or had been affected by the hack, including @MiracleJoe, who tweeted, "i am now an level 85 human warrior on mal'ganis server," apparently indicating that he had used a login name and password to gain access to a World of Warcraft account.

Users apparently used the usernames and passwords to change profile pictures on dating accounts to pictures of penises. One user complained that his Gmail username and password had been leaked, and that that had led to his Twitter, Hotmail and Facebook accounts being compromised. Other pictures posted also showed apparent evidence of Facebook accounts being hacked.

Gizmodo claimed that it had an automated script to check an email address against the database, to determine if that email address (and related passwords) had been publicly leaked.

A Google spokesman also said in an emailed statement that Gmail users whose usernames and passwords had been leaked had been notified. The site recommends users use strong passwords and take advantage of Gmail's two-factor authentication option, he said Thursday afternoon.

The site's authors also took time to respond to "aspiring lulzicians" via what they called "TwitterTimeoutThursday" via quotes like these: "Turtles have DDoS shells and so do we, so naturally turtles are our friends in the world of lizard-splitting Freemason intrusions."

LulzSec appears to be a rival group to Anonymous, the group that allegedly was behind the recent hacking attempt on Sony and its affiliates. However, LulzSec has been much more interested in attacking political targets like the FBI, the U.S. Senate Web site, and, reportedly, the CIA, where LulzSec crashed the agency's Web site. The group also created a dial-in number for suggested hacks, which was reportedly used as a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack of sorts against physical landlines.

As Sophos has noted before, LulzSec does not "appear to be motivated purely for the group's own entertainment." LulzSec apparently agrees. When it hacked into the Senate.gov database, the group said it was a "small, just-for-kicks release" of internal data.

Other recent targets include Bethesda Softworks and a porn site, Sony, Nintendo, and FBI affiliates.
LulzSec also received the NextMedia Animation (NMATv) treatment:

2012 is coming... I don't even know if this is considered spam soon, because it seems LulzSec hacks different sites every other day.

EDIT:

Also, for the mods: personal information download links in their twitter, if there's them, no longer work.

Then we can log on an leaked admin account and check what the exclusive patch is.

Edit:
They are actually taking REQUESTS in their irc now...according to their twitter

Inb4 some1 requests nexon...

[COLOR="#0000ff"]I'm lol'ing hard at the people when they get hacked, but when it comes down to game sites.. well it isn't that funny. D:
If they get to Nexon before SI I'll cry my eyes out, the patch is too full of win to miss. D: I guess this is a good way to get us to go outside? o-o

And how is that funny? Some of these people did nothing wrong.

Corn · 2011-06-17, 07:52 PM

C'mon CIA, track these idiots down >_>.

Panacea · 2011-06-17, 07:57 PM

Agreed with Mike.

If you find these hackings amusing rather than pathetic, there's something wrong with you.

I was in their IRC for a while earlier, there was someone that kept asking for nexon.net to be taken down. His IRC name was BetoCR_ if that means anything to anyone xD

maplefreak26 · 2011-06-17, 08:23 PM

I would like their IRC Chat info... O__O

Well, I didn't really mean that, I meant more of the websites I don't know, and really when I said lol'ing, I meant their comments. I hope they stop though, I don't want the rampage to go anywhere important/fun. ;-;

I REALLY want to see this happen, no joke.

Why would you want this? That would hurt every single one of us infinitely more than it will hurt Nexon. Not only that, but Nexon would get sympathy for being another victim to the terrorists, meanwhile we've all got our account information floating around out there. YEAH, CAN'T WAIT!

Sarah Wrote:YEAH, CAN'T WAIT!

I'm going to be beyond pissed.

I'd rather not get hacked again, thanks.

Yup, this for sure.

**Five Second Pose** · 2011-06-17, 09:42 PM

I would suggest not throwing names out for them to hack on Southperry, whether you suggest Nexon or anyone else. Heavens above if Nexon sees this thread with the lot of you suggesting LulzSec hacks Nexon -_-
