Amazon Hack Done By Notorious Anarchist Group Anonymous; Information Leak Attacks More Than 13,000 Users Of PlayStation And Xbox

Amazon hack was done by a notorious gang of Internet hackers from the shadowy anarchist group Anonymous. According to the infamous online terrorists, they have leaked the private details of over 13,000 users of Xbox, PlayStation, and various online stores.

These infamous hackers have posted a document on the World Wide Web so that everyone could easily access it. The said file contains multiple usernames and their corresponding password combinations. The Amazon hack also included credit card numbers as well as their expiry dates.

According to the group, they decided to push through with their plans to resume hacking "for the Lulz."

Dailydot.com said that the hackers released the account details of those who use the Sony PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, and Twitch.tv. They also released the private account information from major online retailers, such as Amazon and Walmart. Pornography websites were also not spared from their onslaught.

Additionally, those who did the recent Amazon hack also ripped the controversial film "The Interview" from Sony and uploaded it to a popular file sharing website. Now that the file is out there, Internet users from different areas on the globe can download the movie illegally.

It can only be assumed that thousands upon thousands of gamers who been affected by the network problems have already sent their complaints to both Microsoft and Sony. It is believed that the hackers used a denial of service attack where they bombard the target servers with lots of Internet traffic. As a result, it shuts down and prevents users from legitimately accessing their consoles.

It would appear that Christmas this year was ruined for thousands of gamers across the country as they were forced to abandon their plans of spending the holidays in a virtual world with their new Xbox or PlayStation.

Children cried for having the "worst Christmas ever," while their parents were enraged about paying hundreds of dollars for game consoles that could no longer be used. Many have resorted to extremely furious Internet posts, demanding that Sony and Microsoft give them compensation for the fault. They also fumed about why it took the console manufacturers so long to correct the problems.
