hacking

It might be recalled that in 2013, the hacking of at least twelve big celebrities and political figures grabbed massive headlines.

Among the data leaked: social security numbers, mortgage amounts, credit card info, car loans, banking information

At the time, Equifax itself acknowledged that it was a vector for the unauthorized access to the private data of four of the individuals.

• Beyonce and Jay-Z
• Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Mel Gibson, Ashton Kutcher
• Joe Biden, Robert Mueller, Hillary Clinton, Eric Holder, LAPD Chief Charlie Beck

The FBI advised them to put fraud alerts on their banking accounts.
