Guccifer Archive (7 GB, includes censored Bush Family Contact List) [GUCCIFER] [CRYPTOME]

Guccifer (AKA Marcel Lazăr Lehel) is a Romanian hacker who is responsible for a number of high-level security breaches involving both current and former members of the United States government. In February, 2013 The Smoking Gun reported he was responsible for hacking the AOL account of Dorothy Bush Koch, sister of former president George W. Bush. Family photos of former president George H. W. Bush, who was in the hospital at the time, were circulated to the internet. He also circulated a self-portrait painted by George W. Bush, depicting the former president taking a shower. Guccifer has gone on to hack a number of AOL, Yahoo, Flickr and Facebook accounts, giving him access to information about current and former high-level government officials. In January 2014 he was jailed in his native Romania for seven years for hacking emails of Romanian officials including the head of the Romanian Intelligence Service.

Guccifer later hacked Colin Powell's website and accessed years' worth of his correspondence from another AOL account. The correspondence included personal financial information as well as e-mails to George Tenet, Richard Armitage, and John Negroponte. The hacker also targeted U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski, a senior UN Official, members of the Rockefeller family, former FBI and Secret Service agents, as well as the brother of Barbara Bush, CBS sportscaster Jim Nantz, and former Miss Maine Patricia Legere.

On March 20, 2013, USA Today reported that Guccifer had successfully hacked the e-mail account of former aide to president Bill Clinton, Sidney Blumenthal. He distributed private memos sent to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton involving recent events in Libya, including the September 11, 2012 Benghazi attack. In early May 2013, Guccifer hacked into online accounts owned by two members of the Council on Foreign Relations, as well as accounts owned by Adam Posen and his wife and another owned by a former Federal Reserve Board official.

Guccifer published his documents with the help of Cryptome and others. Many have been forced offline - including Cryptome's paste of the files and Cryptome's copy of the Bush Family Contact List. For the first time since then, the complete Guccifer archive is available (minus 5 or 6 meaningless .wmv files restricted by KAT because of the wmv file format) - including the banned Bush Family Contact List.
