Malaysian Bloggers : LONDON - A HACKER claims to have stolen names and passwords belonging to 120 users of Sony Europe?s website and published them to the Internet.
It?s the latest in a series of attacks which have hammered the electronics multinational.
Security researchers have counted about a dozen breaches since the beginning of this year, including two particularly serious ones which exposed 100 millions users' personal details.
The latest attack was claimed by 'Idahc,' who self-identifies as a Lebanese hacker. The Associated Press has been able to verify several of the exposed names.
A US-based spokesman for Sony Corp has not returned an email seeking comment.
The website allegedly hacked into was down for 'scheduled maintenance' on Saturday.
