CyberWar - 100,000 Facebook Login Details Stolen By Hannibal (Israeli Hacker)
Again facebook users became the target of hackers. A hacker named Hannibal who claims to act in defense of Israel has released 100,000 credentials of allegedly Arab users of Facebook in an ongoing cyber war between Israeli and Arab hackers. The hacker posted the credentials in four parts on Pastebin on Saturday as well as making the details available on 14 file-sharing sites. Later it was removed for violation. Few days ago we have covered that hackers from Saudi Arabia named Group-XP has hacked more than 400K Israeli credit cards and they have openly posted on a pastebin release names, passwords, addresses, phone numbers and government ID numbers and so on. So this attack is the payback of Group-XP's attack. In a note introducing the data, the hacker claimed to have 30 million email account details, 10 million bank accounts and four million credit card accounts belonging to "Arabs from all over the world." Hannibal vowed to come to Israel's defense if needed: "If they appear again, I again come to save Israel. Trust me. I'll always be around." Since 13 January, Hannibal has released several batches of email and Facebook log-in details. Facebook officials said last week of one of the releases that less than a third of the credentials were valid, and half were not associated with Facebook accounts.
Earlier such attacks taken place when Cru3l Int3ntion (Nepalese Hackers) has hacked more than 6K FB login details, also another group named TeamSwaStika has hijacked more than 10 thousand Facebook accounts. Later FB authority denies that attack. Not only this but also newly discovered Ramnit Worm has stolen the login information for over 45,000 Facebook accounts. Few months ago it was found in the infographic blog post of Facebook where they said that nearly 600,000 facebook log-ins per are being compromised per day.
