‘Dance Moms’ season 6 cast members hacked again

Posted on January 21, 2016 by Dissent

Janna Dela Cruz reported this last month, but I just came across it today, so with the proviso that I never even heard of this show: 

“Dance Moms” stars Abby Lee Miller, Maddie Ziegler and other cast members of the Lifetime series were reportedly hacked. TMZ has word that hackers were able to take control of the stars’ email, Paypal and iCloud accounts.

The hackers, who were discovered to be a group of four underage girls dubbed by the FBI as the Mean Girls, also posted their victims’ information online, including their contact numbers. This resulted to a surge of messages from fans.

TMZ reports that “Dance Moms” staple and Maddie’s younger sister, Mackenzie, woke up to over 2000 messages after her contact information was leaked by the hackers. To add insult to the injury, the hacking was done more than once.
