Stratfor Hacked, 200GB Of Emails, Credit Cards Stolen, Client List Released,
Includes MF Global, Rockefeller Foundation

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/24/2011 21:10 -0500

This Christmas will not be a happy one for George Friedman (who incidentally
was the focus of John Mauldin's latest book promotion email blast) and his
Stratfor Global Intelligence service, because as of a few hours ago, hacking
collective Anonymous disclosed that not only has it hacked the Stratfor
website (since confirmed by Friedman himself), but has also obtained the full
client list of over 4000 individuals and corporations, including their credit
cards (which supposedly have been used to make $1 million in "donations"), as
well as over 200 GB of email correspondence. And since the leaked client list
is the who is who of intelligence, and capital management, including such
names as Goldman Sachs, the Rockefeller Foundation and, yep, MF Global, we
are certain that not only Stratfor and its clients will be waiting with bated
breath to see just what additional troves of information are unleashed, but
virtually everyone else, in this very sensitive time from a geopolitical
point of view. And incidentally, we can't help but notice that Anonymous may
have finally ventured into the foreign relations arena. We can only assume,
for now, that this is not a formal (or informal) statement of allegiance with
any specific ideology as otherwise the wargames in the Straits of Hormuz may
soon be very inappropriately named (or halfway so).

intelligence corporation, live on IRC and twitter?" #LulzXmas

#LulzXmas

Anon promises that much more is coming:

    #Antisec has enough targets lined up to extend the fun fun fun of
#LulzXmas throught the entire next week.

How the Stratfor site looked minutes after the hack:

Full letter from George Friemdan to clients as of an hour ago:

The full client list as released in a pastebin by Anonymous of all the
alleged clients sorted by company name, can be found here. As this is merely
an extracted column from a far larger database, we are confident much more
very sensitive information, as the bulk of the companies are either in the
intelligence or money management business, will be released shortly.
