Hacker ‘Guccifer’ goes after George W. Bush and billionaire mogul with latest breaches
The computer hacker attributed with compromising emails linked to George W. Bush and Hillary Clinton is taking credit again for two other high-profile security breaches. Not only is a hacker using the alias “Guccifer” claiming to have now infiltrated the email account of venture capitalist John Doerr, but the computer wiz has released a new trove of images reported to be photographs of oil paintings crafted by former-US President George W. Bush. Before taking credit earlier this week with compromising the email account of former Clinton White House aide Sidney Blumenthal, Guccifer gained access to the accounts of Dorothy Bush Koch and at least five others with close ties to the Bush dynasty. To showcase the hack, he supplied The Smoking Gun last month with a series of paintings purported to have been done by Pres. George W. Bush as well as a series of emails about Bush’s ailing father, who served as forty-first president of the United States. To a separate outlet this week, Guccifer has released a new collection of oil paintings alleged to be done by Bush 43. The website Gawker published on Wednesday a half a dozen new paintings that they say were provided by Guccifer.
