Uh oh, Sarah Palin's privacy has been breached! Her Yahoo account was hacked, revealing private emails that Palin sent to her contacts, as well, revealing the email addies that belong to her husband Todd, pregnant daughter Bristol and her 19-year-old son, Track. And she uses that address to send government emails to officials. Yikes!
Hackers exposed the Governor's email and screenshots have been posted at WikiLeaks and critics are claiming that Palin is using a non-official government email address to send certain information that she may want to be kept secret, which allows her to sidestep public disclosure laws.
McCain-Palin campaign said, "This is a shocking invasion of the governor's privacy and a violation of law. The matter has been turned over to the appropriate authorities and we hope that anyone in possession of these e-mails will destroy them."
According to the AP, the US Secret Service had asked it to hand over its copies of the exposed emails, but the news agency has refused.
It's unclear whether hackers used public information to gain access to Sarah's account or if she inadvertently gave away her password through a phishing scam.
