Guy Fawkes Day (5th November 2012) ] Hack of 28,000 Paypal Accounts
5th November 2012 was the most exciting day in Cyberspace, yesterday we have report about few major hacks and leaks including Hacking of ImageShack Server , thousands of researchers database leak from Symantec portal, then NBC Sports Rotoworld forums and NBC Mobile site was defaced by pyknic hacker and a claim that user names and passwords for the site had been compromised, Anonymous leaks the VMware ESX Server Kernel source code online , numerous Australian sites, and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
The Guy Fawkes Day ends with the hack of 28,000 Paypal Accounts. AnonymousPress tweeted, "Paypal hacked by Anonymous as part of our November 5th protest privatepaste.com/e8d3b2b2b1 #5Nov" (File Removed now)
Private Paste documents contained 27,935 entries from Paypal database table “mc_customers” including emails, names, passwords (encrypted) and corresponding telephone numbers.
However according to PayPal’s head of PR, they claim to be investigating the alleged hack, but so far they have stated that they are unable to validate any evidence that there has been a security breach which we can only take to be a good thing.

Anonymous Threatens to Shutdown Facebook - Dude, do you have any Idea ?
Do you believe that it is possible to shut down Facebook with a cyber attack on 5th November 2012, which is not even organised in a proper way ? Few activists on internet threatened to shut down Zynga and Facebook, after the gaming giant announced it was laying off five per cent of its work force.
Most obvious like other big fake claims, this claim is also not from the activist working as Anonymous Genuinely. Generally I am strong supporter of Anonymous or Wikileaks but the Idea behind Anonymous have lots of Pro and Con.
Facebook , Twitter and other social media sites and News organisations are giving you platform for spreading information, they are your voice with an amplifier. Do you think you can use your MIC after unplugging is ? If yes, then think again...
Message for individual behind Facebook attack: Dude, Do you have any idea that, how you will post a successful facebook hack status on your Anonymous facebook page (having millions of fans) after shutting down Facebook ? LOL , its same like "Cutting off the branch you're sitting on".
The concept of being anonymous makes people more daring, being nameless can bring people together, and because there is such a large following their protests can often make a big impact. Some of them are doing extraordinary job in this fight against corruption and Injustice , but on the other hand we have n00bs also who continuously using Anonymous banner for personal benefit and Discredit the Collective Name - 'Anonymous'.
Two weeks before we have seen a fake claim by @FawkesSecurity posted a threat to bomb a government building by Anonymous, then yesterday we have seen a Ransomware malware attacking computers for ransom money in the name of Anonymous. Its already clear to everyone that Anonymous does not condone violence in any way and they are involved in only peaceful protest and internet protest.
Hacking Random sites and Leaking documents and Details of innocent people of the World was never the part of this Internet Protest.
