From staff reports
In July, the Trussville Tribune reported a story from Avid Life Media, the parent company of ashleymadison.com, stating Trussville had the most residents in the metro Birmingham area signed up on their website.
A hack into the website by a group calling themselves Impact Team put those who were signed up on the “cheater’s website” at risk to have their personal information posted online.
Today, according to Time Magazine, that list has been dumped.
The dump includes the personal information of about 32 million users, and also provides f information such as their names, email and street addresses, how much they have spent on the site and even what they are looking for in a potential cheating partner the story said.
“Find someone you know in here? Keep in mind the site is a scam with thousands of fake female profiles,” the post from Impact Team headlined “Time’s Up!” reads. “90-95% of the actual users are male. Chances are your man signed up on the world’s biggest affair site, but never had one. He just tried to. If that distinction matters.”
Avid Life released a statement saying they are working with authorities in the U.S. and Canada.
“This event is not an act of hacktivism, it is an act of criminality. It is an illegal action against the individual members of AshleyMadison.com, as well as any freethinking people who choose to engage in fully lawful online activities. We will not sit idly by and allow these thieves to force their personal ideology on citizens around the world,” the statement reads.
