In the case of the hacked call, the FBI confirmed that the recent recording of their conversation with Scotland Yard was indeed authentic. An investigation is now taking place, but Anonymous does not seem to be worried. In response to this, the group continues to put things out to the public. This time around they posted an email that displayed all of the email addresses of the people who participated in the call.

Now what exactly happened? Investigators believe that someone on the secure email network sent out an email to his or her private email account. This email held the password and location number of the conference call and was ultimately hacked by Anonymous once it founds its way to the private email account.

If this is the case, security experts believe “that the weakest links in cyber security systems are the humans who use it.” According to VP of KNOS Project, “If there’s any blame to be placed for the compromise,” he says, “it has to be laid at the feet of those who configured the teleconferencing systems that answered the phone without screening the calls first.”
