Anonymous claims they hacked Donald Trump, releasing 'his Social Security and cell phone numbers'
Anonymous' alleged hack was announced in YouTube video on Thursday
The group claims to have released a Social Security number belonging to Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump
It also released what it claimed to be Trump's cell phone number, his birth date, children's names and company address
It comes just two weeks after the group announced a 'total war' on Trump
Hacker group Anonymous released phone numbers and a Social Security number allegedly belonging to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, the organization announced on Thursday.
The alleged hack was announced in YouTube video less than two weeks after Anonymous announced a 'total war' on Trump.
'Donald Trump has set his ambitions on the White House in order to promote an agenda of fascism and xenophobia as well as the religious persecution of Muslims through totalitarian policies,' the masked speaker says in the video.
Trump's campaign issued a statement following the alleged hack, promising to hold those involved accountable.
'The government and law enforcement authorities are seeking the arrest of the people responsible for attempting to illegally hack Mr. Trump's accounts and telephone information,' the statement said.
A government official confirmed that federal authorities are investigating the situation, according to ABC News.
Along with a Social Security number allegedly belonging to Trump, Anonymous released what it claimed to be Trump's cell phone number, his birth date, children's names and company address.
They also released outdated information including legal representation.
After the documents were posted, Anonymous announced the hack on Twitter.
