Hacker again plagues US Democrats, calls presidential campaign a “farce”
In a post to his WordPress blog, the hacker who calls him/herself Guccifer 2.0 uploaded an Excel file Friday revealing the cell phone numbers and private e-mail addresses of nearly every Democratic member of the House of Representatives, their staffs and campaign personnel. The same vandal claimed to have previously passed 20,000 Democratic National Committee e-mails to Wikileaks.
Federal investigators speculate that “Guccifer 2.0” who claims to be Romanian and an “unknown hacker with a laptop,” may be acting for Russian intelligence in targeting the DNC and the Hillary Clinton campaign. In the new message, the hacker brands the US presidential elections a “farce” that is “being settled behind the scenes as it was with Bernie Sanders.” He added: "The big money bags are fighting for power today. They are lying constantly and don’t keep their word. The MSM [mainstream media] are producing tons of propaganda hiding the real stuff behind it.”
