Attacker publishes GMO user data after ransom deadline passes

An attacker claiming responsibility for the unauthorized access to GMO Internet Group has published what appears to be a user's personal information on a website, following the company's failure to meet a negotiation deadline. The site, titled "Statement," claims GMO did not respond to a noon deadline and warns it will release analyzed personal data daily at noon unless a $1 million ransom is paid. The authenticity of the published details, including a name and address, is unverified. GMO stated it is still investigating and has no comment at this time. Experts are urging the public not to visit the suspected attacker's website.
