Anonymous tweeted this morning, “#Anonymous #AntiSec intercepts #FBI comms. Conference call [mp3] mir.cr/1SL3XXIR #OWS #FFF,” meaning, yes: somehow the legion was able to hack an FBI conference call, “policing the police.”
The conference call consisted of both the Los Angeles and London contingents, 6 FBI officers. Clearly the call was meant exclusively for the said callers, but Anonymous hacked their way into by obtaining an e-mail account from one of the parties with a subject, “Anon-Lulz International Coordination Call.”
The conversation had to do with Anon’s hacks back in July, “dump[ing] files [...] about IRC Federal, a government contracted IT firm,” finding some interesting information “for the FBI to develop a ‘Special Identities Modernization (SIM) Project’ to ‘reduce terrorist and criminal activity by protecting all records associated with trusted individuals and revealing the identities of those indivisuals who may pose serious risk to the United States and its allies.”
The FBI is “aware of the video which relates to [the] conference call involving a PCeU representative. The matter is being investigated by the FBI. [They] continue to carry out a full assessment[,] [and] are not prepared to discuss further.”
In a statement that announced the intercepted call, they emphasized how a “ a criminal investigation is under way to identify and hold accountable those responsible[.]”
