Anonymous continues operations against the FBI

A Special Agent Supervisor of the CA Department of Justice is the latest victim of Anonymous who claims that their operations against the FBI succeeded once again after managing to hack two of his Gmail accounts.

As a result, 38,000 emails containing “detailed computer forensics techniques, investigation protocols as well as highly embarrassing personal information,” were published online.

“We are confident these gifts will bring smiles to the faces of our black hat brothers and sisters (especially those who have been targeted by these scurvy dogs) while also making a mockery of 'security professionals' who whore their 'skills' to law enforcement to protect tyrannical corporativism and the status quo we aim to destroy,” a video statement claims.

Their find contains not only professional activity related info but also voicemails from angry ex-wives and girlfriends. Besides this and the internet searches the man made, they also abused his Google voice account to show his friends and family that he's owned.

However, the most important find in their opinion are the emails that contain IACIS.com internal email list archives from the past six years, where methods and tactics used by cybercrime units to gather evidence are described.

“The information in these emails will prove essential to those who want to protect themselves from the techniques and procedures cyber crime investigators use to build cases. If you have ever been busted for computer crimes, you should check to see if your case is being discussed here,” Anonymous adds.

With this hacking operation they want to show the world that not even the white hats that are considered to be the best in the fight against dark forces of the cyber world are a match for the hacktivist collective.

“These cybercrime investigators are supposed to be the cream of the crop, but we reveal the totality of their ignorance of all matters related to computer security.”

First let me point out you can not spell. Second Anonymous is not upfront about who they are, they are ANONYMOUS! Hence you cannot see, nor know who they are. At least I can see the liars and criminals in government.
