The hacker known as Sepo has breached the website of Israeli diamond trader BBY Diamonds (bbyloosediamonds.com) and the one of Bulgaria’s First Investment Bank (fibank.bg).

He hacker told me that he breached the site of BBY Diamonds “for the lulz.”

“They have a lot of money but don't wanna pay for web security. They are a part of 1%!!! Viva Anonymous,” he said.

Besides some server information, Sepo has also leaked a username and a clear-text password.

The site of the First Investment Bank has been hacked as part of the AntiSec operation. The hacker has published database details, along with information taken from a couple of tables, including names, bank branch addresses, phone numbers, and fax numbers.
