Hackers Trace ISIS Twitter Accounts to UK Department of Work and Pensions


If the prospect of ISIS refugees scares you, you may want to avoid this next report. Apparently, it’s being reported that they’ve infiltrated western governments as well.

Hackers have claimed that a number of Islamic State supporters’ social media accounts are being run from internet addresses linked to the Department of Work and Pensions.

A group of four young computer experts who call themselves VandaSec have unearthed evidence indicating that at least three ISIS-supporting accounts can be traced back to the DWP’s London offices.

Every computer and mobile phone logs onto the internet using an IP address, which is a type of identification number.

The hacking collective showed Mirror Online details of the IP addresses used by a trio of separate digital jihadis to access Twitter accounts, which were then used to carry out online recruitment and propaganda campaigns.

At first glance, the IP addresses seem to be based in Saudi Arabia, but upon further inspection using specialist tools they appeared to link back to the DWP.

“Don’t you think that’s strange?” one of the hackers asked Mirror Online. “We traced these accounts back to London, the home of the British intelligence services.”

This has the potential to be a pivotal discovery in the war on ISIS. If they have managed to infiltrate European government, hopefully that haven’t accumulated the power necessary to stop a military response against the organization.

Have radical jihadists infiltrated the US government? According to some of the highest military commanders, such as the likes of a 4-Star Admiral Lyons and a 3-Star General Boykin, absolutely. Time is short America! We have a helluva fight ahead of us.
