Hacking group operating out of Russia claims to have stolen Sony, PlayStations data and selling to highest bidder
A group of hackers that is believed to be operating out of Russia has claimed it has successfully breached Sony’s security systems and stole data belonging to its customers. The group is threatening to sell the stolen information to the highest bidder.
The alleged breach was first reported by Australian site Cyber Security Connect and although Sony has not confirmed the breach, it has said it is investigating the claims. ‘We are currently investigating the situation, and we have no further comment at this time,” Sony’s press release read.
Ransomed.vc claimed on both the clear and dark nets ‘We have successfully compromissed [sic] all of sony systems,’ , as reported by Cyber Security Connect. ‘We won’t ransom them! We will sell the data. Due to Sony not wanting to pay. DATA IS FOR SALE,’ the group Ransomed.vc said in a statement.
The Daily Mail reports the Cyber Security report says that Ransomed.vc has posted a power point presentation online showing how the hacking was done, including screenshots of a login page and screenshots of files. The Cyber Security report says that Ransomed.vc threatened to post the information online on September 28 if it is not paid. The warning also gives Sony contact details for the group saying it is in possession of 6,000 files, which is described as ‘small’ compared to ‘all of Sony’s systems.’
The Daily Mail adds that the stolen data is reported to be in Japanese, and “In a bizarre element to the alleged hack is that Ransomed.vc has said that if payment isn’t received, it will be obligated to report the breach to the European Union’s data privacy body.”

Trump Calls For Rebid of Broadcast Licenses after CBS Commits ‘Greatest Fraud in Broadcast History’ with Harris Interview
Donald Trump is calling to rebid all broadcast licenses after CBS News conducted what he referred to as “the greatest fraud in broadcast history.” During an interview with Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, host Bill Whitaker brought up U.S. foreign aid for Israel in its war against Hamas and said “it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening” to the U.S.
In the promotional clip that CBS published on Sunday, Harris responded: “The work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by or a result of many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region.”
However, in the full interview segment that aired later, Harris’ answer was different.
“We are not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end,” she said.
The Harris campaign has denied involvement in the decision to make the edit in the 60 Minutes interview, as Trump called on the government to dramatically rebid the broadcast licenses of the major television networks to create new competition and balance.
“60 Minutes is a major part of the News Organization of CBS, which has just created the Greatest Fraud in Broadcast History,” Trump told Just the News. “CBS should lose its license, and it should be bid out to the Highest Bidder, as should all other Broadcast Licenses, because they are just as corrupt as CBS – and maybe even WORSE!”
“The fraud committed by 60 Minutes and CBS, together with the Democrat Party, is the single Biggest Scandal in Broadcast History!” he continued.
“A giant Fake News Scam by CBS & 60 Minutes. Her REAL ANSWER WAS CRAZY, OR DUMB, so they actually REPLACED it with another answer in order to save her or, at least, make her look better. A FAKE NEWS SCAM, which is totally illegal,” Trump posted Thursday.
“TAKE AWAY THE CBS LICENSE. Election Interference. She is a Moron, and the Fake News Media wants to hide that fact. An UNPRECEDENTED SCANDAL!!! The Dems got them to do this and should be forced to concede the Election? WOW!” he added.
