US House of Representatives Data Breach (2013)

Members of the Iranian Digital Boys Underground Team recently published data that they claim was stolen via a spear phishing attack on the U.S. House of Representatives. On Pastebin, the group published five database entries for people who the hackers say are House employees and "important people from the USA." Each entry includes a first name, e-mail address, encrypted password, IP address, and a photo. When asked via Twitter about the reason for the attack, the hackers wrote, "Cuz Obama is spreading lies and the USA also they are spreading lies about Syria."
