WikiLeaks has begun posting the stolen emails from CIA Director Brennan. The emails were allegedly stolen by a teenager who posed as a Verizon employee and getting the company to reveal his personal information, according to Wired.
Additional documents will be posted “over the coming days,” WikiLeaks said, while claiming that Brennan used the account “occasionally for several intelligence related projects.”
CIA spokesman Dean Boyd said: "The hacking of the Brennan family account is a crime and the Brennan family is the victim. The private electronic holdings of the Brennan family were plundered with malicious intent and are now being distributed across the web. This attack is something that could happen to anyone and should be condemned, not promoted."
Among the released documents contain detailed information about his life and biography, including his passport number, home telephone number and a list of home addresses. In addition, they also contain his wifes Social Security number as well as birth dates, names and other information about close family members.
FBI Director James Comey declined to answer reporters’ questions about the incident on Tuesday. CIA representatives did not respond to an inquiry about the leaked documents.
