A high-profile plastic surgery clinic has said it is “horrified” after hackers allegedly stole data during a cyber-attack.<\/p>\n
London Bridge Plastic Surgery (LBPS) said\u00a0its IT experts and police found evidence of the breach.<\/p>\n
A group claiming to be behind the breach said it had “terabytes” of data, the\u00a0Daily Beast news site reported.<\/p>\n
The Metropolitan Police is investigating the attack.<\/p>\n
The alleged hackers, using the pseudonym The Dark Overlord, said they had obtained photos showing various body parts of clients, including genitals.<\/p>\n
Some of these images have been sent to the Daily Beast.<\/p>\n
The hackers also claimed that the data contained information on “royal families” and added that they planned to distribute the patient list and corresponding photos online.<\/p>\n
“We are still working to establish exactly what data has been compromised,” LBPS said in a statement.<\/p>\n
“We are horrified that they have now targeted our patients.”<\/p>\n
