including credit card, banking, and investment statements.
The newest roster of "Guccifer" victims includes entertainers,
industrialists, academics, diplomats, financiers, government and military
officials, and journalists--most of whom likely have no idea that the
hacker has illegally prowled through their online accounts. With few
discernible patterns, "Guccifer" has hopscotched between the accounts of
victims like comedian Steve Martin; editor Tina Brown (seen below);
ex-Nixon aide John Dean; author Kitty Kelley; actress Mariel Hemingway;
three members of the UK’s House of Lords; a former Air Force secretary;
the CEO/chairman of MetLife, the $60 billion insurance conglomerate; a
Pulitzer Prize winner; the director of Romania’s domestic intelligence
service; and a Gibson Dunn partner with the improbably Dickensian name
Cantwell F. Muckenfuss III.
