LOS ANGELES: The FBI and Apple were urgently investigating on Monday (Sep 1) after an apparent massive hack of a cloud data service unleashed a torrent of intimate pictures of dozens of celebrities across the Internet.


Anonymous posters to online message boards boasted of having nude images of scores of female stars including Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence and top model Kate Upton. Reports suggested hackers had "ripped" private images from Apple's iCloud online data storage Adidas T. J.

"Any further comment would be inappropriate at this time Adidas Alex Ovechkin Jersey ," she added.


Some of the pictures had previously been circulated on message forums, and others appeared fake, but some major stars expressed outrage and threatened legal action. "This is a flagrant violation of privacy. The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence," Lawrence's agent told entertainment media. Upton's lawyer Authentic Evgeny Kuznetsov Jersey , Lawrence Shore, told Us Magazine: "We intend to pursue anyone disseminating or duplicating these images to the fullest extent possible."


By late Sunday, Twitter had begun suspending accounts that linked to the Lawrence photos, tech news site Mashable reported.

Former Nickelodeon star and singer Victoria Justice said the images claiming to show her nude were anything but the real deal. "These so called nudes of me are FAKE people. Let me nip this in the bud right now. *pun intended*" she tweeted. A spokesperson for actress and pop star Ariana Grande told BuzzFeed that images said to be of her are "completely fake."


"CREEPY EFFORT"


But horror movie actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead confirmed that some of her private pictures were in circulation and condemned those who stole them and who circulated them. "To those of you looking at photos I took with my husband years ago in the privacy of our home, hope you feel great about yourselves," she tweeted. "Knowing those photos were deleted long ago, I can only imagine the creepy effort that went into this. Feeling for everyone who got hacked."


The scale of the breach became apparent on Sunday when users of the 4chan message board Authentic Nicklas Backstrom Jersey , a diverse online community that has been criticized in the past for misogyny, began sharing pictures. Some more mainstream news and entertainment sites took up the story - and some linked to the images before taking them down amid legal threats and public outrage.

Some users, hiding behind pseudonyms Authentic Alex Ovechkin Jersey , made an apparent attempt to sell the pictures or to trade them with fellow hackers for others.


SECURITY HOLE?
