Adult dating site hack exposes sexual secrets of millions

Published

on

Included in the exposed personal information are customers’ email addresses, usernames, passwords, birthdays and zip codes, in addition to their sexual preferences. No credit card data has yet been uncovered as part of the hack.

That data is incredibly revealing and potentially damaging.

Andrew Auernheimer, a controversial computer hacker who looked through the files, used Twitter to publicly identify Adult FriendFinder customers, including a Washington police academy commander, an FAA employee, a California state tax worker and a naval intelligence officer who supposedly tried to cheat on his wife.

Asked why he was doing this, Auernheimer said: “I went straight for government employees because they seem the easiest to shame.”

Millions of others remain unnamed for now, but anyone can open the files — which remain freely available online. That could allow anyone to extort Adult FriendFinder customers.

For instance, the security consultant Robb reported that one person whose information was hacked was a 62-year-old Hispanic male from New Jersey, who worked in advertising and has a preference for the “subporno” forum. That, combined with his username and other account details, gave Robb enough information to Google him, find his real name, and find his social media pages.

The information exposed can be particularly devastating to people living in small towns, where they are more easily identified. For example, one person exposed in the hack is a 40-year old welder from a small Illinois town of a few thousand people. He “will become anybody’s slave” and lied about his age on the site, claiming to be 29.

The breach was carried out by a hacker who goes by the moniker ROR[RG]. In an online hacker forum, he said he blackmailed Adult FriendFinder, telling the site he would expose the data online unless the company paid him $100,000.

On the forum, hackers immediately praised ROR[RG], saying they were planning on using the data to attack the victims.

“i am loading these up in the mailer now / i will send you some dough from what it makes / thank you!!” wrote a hacker who goes by “MAPS.”

FriendFinder Networks Inc., parent company of Adult FriendFinder and other adult sites and publications including Penthouse, said in a statement that it had just become aware of the breach, and it is working closely with law enforcement and cyberforensics company Mandiant, a FireEye(FEYE) subsidiary.

The company said it doesn’t yet know the full scope of the breach, but it promised to “work vigilantly,” noting that FriendFinder Networks “fully appreciates the seriousness of the issue.”

“We cannot speculate further about this issue, but rest assured, we pledge to take the appropriate steps needed to protect our customers if they are affected,” the company said.

Liam not my grandson, he doesn’t look like Mohbad, Joseph Aloba insists

Published

By

Joseph Aloba, the father of Mohbad, has reiterated his doubts about the paternity of his grandson, Liam.

Liam is the son of Mohbad and his wife, Omowunmi.

Mohbad died on September 12, 2023, and was buried the following day. On September 21, his body was exhumed by police for an autopsy.

Aloba has been vocal about his demands for justice, calling for the police to probe Omowunmi and for a DNA test to be conducted on Liam.

Aloba had refused to rebury Mohbad and emphasized the need to confirm Liam’s biological connection to him.

However, Omowunmi accused her father-in-law of avoiding a DNA test.

In a recent interview with Silverbird Television, Aloba reiterated his doubts about Liam’s paternity.

When asked if Liam looked like Mohbad, Aloba vehemently said “no”. “With what I’m seeing, he is not my grandson,” he said.

He also expressed frustration that Omowunmi and her family have not brought Liam to him, “despite knowing my house address”.

“As a father, they know where I am living. Yes (They do not come to me). I do not want to speak about it now because the case is still in court,” he said.

“As a father, they are supposed to bring the child to me. Now, I demand DNA, they are supposed to say ‘Daddy go and do it at your convenient time’.

“It has become public now. Let the court speak to that. With what I’m seeing, he is not my grandson.”

Aloba added that he would only accept Liam as his grandson if the “DNA test says otherwise”.

Aloba’s concerns come at about the same time when Abosede, Mohbad’s mum, clashed with Fabiyi over an accusation against the singer’s brother.

Fabiyi claimed Adura knew the cause of Mohbad’s death and requested money to share information with him.

The intruder was said to have entered Khan’s home in the western suburb of Bandra and engaged in an argument with a female employee. Khan intervened, leading to a scuffle, during which he was stabbed.

Khan, who is the son of former India cricket captain Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi and actress Sharmila Tagore, was rushed to the hospital, where he underwent surgery.

“Khan has come out of surgery and is out of danger. He is currently in recovery and the doctors are monitoring his progress,” his team said in a statement.

The police have also launched an investigation into the incident and are searching for the perpetrator.

The incident has sparked concerns about safety and security in Mumbai, with film stars and opposition leaders calling for increased police presence in the city.

Khan is among the country’s most bankable actors, having featured in more than 70 films and television series, in some also as a producer. He has won multiple awards, including seven Filmfare Awards.

David Lynch, the visionary US filmmaker behind iconic works like ‘Mulholland Drive’ and ‘Twin Peaks’, has passed away at the age of 78.

His family announced his death on his Facebook page on Thursday evening — although the cause of death was not revealed.

“It is with deep regret that we, his family, announce the passing of the man and the artist, David Lynch,” the post reads.

“We would appreciate some privacy at this time. There’s a big hole in the world now that he’s no longer with us. But, as he would say, ‘Keep your eye on the donut and not on the hole.

“It’s a beautiful day with golden sunshine and blue skies all the way.”

Born in Missoula, Montana in 1946, Lynch went to art college in the 1960s. He moved to Los Angeles in 1971 and studied film-making at the AFI Conservatory, where he began filming his first feature Eraserhead.

Lynch’s remarkable career spanned over five decades, earning him three Best Director Oscar nominations for ‘Blue Velvet,’ ‘The Elephant Man,’ and ‘Mulholland Drive’.
