Saudi hackers Group-XP say they published 400,000 Israelis' credit card details: Saudi hackers from the Group-XP collective said yesterday they had published the credit card details of 400,000 Israelis, Ynet News reported. Banks said many of the numbers posted online were not valid, but at least 15,000 cardholders are believed to have been affected.

According to Agence France Presse, a statement by "anonymous Saudi Arabian hackers" from Group-XP, the "largest Wahhabi hacker group of Saudi Arabia," appeared on Israeli sports website One.co.il yesterday, announcing that the customer databases of multiple Israeli sites had been hacked.

Visitors were then redirected to another page, where they were invited to download lists of thousands of names, addresses, credit card numbers, expiration dates and security codes. Cards used to make payments to "Judaism" websites or "Israeli Zionist Rabbis" were among those listed, Haaretz reported.
