Saudi Hackers Hack ONE Website, leak personal info of thousands

Saudi hackers who identified themselves as members of the online Anonymous network claimed on Monday to have leaked files containing personal information, including credit card numbers and expiration dates, belonging to more than 400,000 Israelis.

They called on surfers to use the details in order to purchase goods online. “It will be so fun to see 400,000 Israelis stand in line outside banks and offices of credit card companies to complain that their cards had been stolen. To see banks shred 400,000 cards and reissue them. To see that Israeli cards are not accepted around the world, like the Nigerian cards,” the hackers wrote.

The hackers, who called the cyber attack a “gift to the world for the new year,” broke into the “ONE” sports website and announced they had leaked the information. They also attached a link to a webpage from which the data could be downloaded.

The Bank of Israel has announced that the reported Saudi theft of Israeli credit card numbers is under investigation.

An Israeli student claimed that the files released by the Saudi hackers contained only 18,000 unique entries, not 400,000 as the hackers claimed. The files allegedly contained credit card information, including security numbers which allow credit card holders to purchase goods online, as well as phone numbers and addresses.
