Here’s everything you need to know regarding the recent hacking incident with the four-time kickboxing world champion.
Hackers attacked Andrew Tate’s online university
Andrew Tate’s The Real World academy was hacked by several perpetrators. This led to a hoard of emails and private chat logs getting leaked.
As reported by The Daily Dot, the incident occurred when Tate was streaming an episode of his podcast, Emergency Meeting, on Rumble. During the broadcast, the said hackers spammed the main chatroom of The Real World with several morphed images of Tate and emoticons of the transgender flag, among other things. The AI-generated photos showcased the businessman-cum-influencer wrapped in an LGBTQ+ flag.
The transgender dig from the cybercriminals was supposedly a reference to certain anti-LGBTQ+ comments made by the university’s users. One of the leaked chats highlighted a member saying, “LGBTQ agenda, the matrix. I live in a very good area with a very good home life, but I am sick of all this garbage happening here.”
Moreover, the hack targeted at Tate enabled the group to “upload emojis, delete attachments, crash everyone’s clients, and temporarily ban people” from The Real World. Additionally, the report mentioned the illegal reveal of the usernames and email addresses of the organization’s users. Over 794,000 usernames of present and ex-members and 324,000+ mail IDs were reported to have been leaked.
Furthermore, the content of over 395 private chat servers was disclosed after Tate’s university was hacked. According to the Daily Dot, an insider source claimed the motive behind the cyber attack to be hacktivism. The said source also stated that the hacker group found the online university’s security to be “hilariously insecure.” At the time of writing, Andrew Tate has not provided any public comment regarding the hack on The Real World.
