A gang of internet hackers claiming an affiliation with shadowy anarchist group Anonymous is claiming it has leaked the details of more than 13,000 users of Playstation, Xbox and online stores including Amazon.

The hackers posted a document online containing username and password combinations. They also added credit card numbers as well as expiry dates.

The group told their followers that they hacked the account details 'for the Lulz'.

13,000 isn't much comparing to the userbase these companies have.

//edit: If they hack playstation and xbox why amazon users are affected?

PSN and XBOX online have been down since Christmas day.. you cannot play online games at all.. maybe it's back up today, I have no idea.. but they shut down gamers worldwide..

i don't think it was the real hacktivist group. more like a bunch of script kids. especially when they say it was for the "lulz". it does not fit in with the M.O. of the "real" anonymous group..

Anyone claiming to be affiliated with Anonymous and are doing it "for the lulz" are not actually affiliated. Anonymous are hacktivists. I know a few members who are part of anonymouse (the actual group).
