Hackers Intercept FBI, Scotland Yard Call
A sensitive conference call between the FBI and Scotland Yard was recorded by the very people they were trying to catch, the hacking group known as Anonymous claimed Friday.
The group released a roughly 15-minute-long recording of what appears to be a Jan. 17 conference call devoted to tracking and prosecuting members of the loose-knit hacking group, reports the Associated Press.
Anonymous also published an email purportedly sent by an FBI agent which gave details and a password for accessing the call.
“The FBI might be curious how we’re able to continuously read their internal comms for some time now,” the group gloated in a message posted to Twitter.
