LA TIMES – Mar 28 – The hacker group known as LulzSec appears to be back, claiming to have exposed the accounts of ~171K members on MilitarySingles.com. The programmers of the website are investigating the attack claimed by LulzSec and are taking measures to increase the site's security. "We have enacted a series of security procedures in response," said Robert Goebel, CEO of ESingles Inc., which owns the site. "Regardless of whether it was a true claim or false claim, we’re treating it as though it’s true just to be safe." But Goebel said he does not think the dating site was actually hacked. He said the website was down for some time over the weekend, but that was due to a scheduled maintenance. He also said he's not sure how the hackers could have dumped so many accounts when the site only has about 140K members.
