Anonymous Strikes Stratfor Think Tank

Anonymous has hacked think tank Stratfor and stole thousands of credit card numbers. Anonymous also claimed to have stolen Stratfor's confidential client list.

Stratfor has denied Anonymous stealing the confidential client list.

Stratfor went offline on Monday. It only displayed a "undergoing maintenance" screen. At this moment Stratfor is still offline.

Credit card lists have been published to the Internet by Anonymous. These lists contain thousands of credit card numbers. More lists could be posted in the future.

It was interesting to hear this was done near the holidays. These Anonymous members must have had extra time to hack Stratfor!
