Hacker group 4Chan have called it the ‘motherload,’ as a massive trove of nude and sexually explicit images have been dumped on the net, featuring stills and videos of Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, Kirsten Dunst and more.

According to huffpo:

A 4chan user claims to have released nude photos of several female celebrities in a major hacking.

The hacker said that he or she leaked photos of Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, and a host of other stars.

A rep for J.Law confirmed that the images, allegedly stolen from her iCloud account, are real.

“This is a flagrant violation of privacy,” the spokesperson told HuffPost. “The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence.”

The Los Angeles Police Department told HuffPost that they have “no knowledge” of the hacking “at this time.” The FBI said they could not confirm or deny reports of the attack. Apple did not return a request for comment.

The hacker claims to have more NSFW pics as well as videos. The user offered to release more media in exchange for money.

The lawyers and powers that be will have to move swiftly to handle the leaks of these NSFW files. We checked this morning and there are still a lot of links that haven’t been shut down.

We hope the perpetrators are brought to book for this gross violation of privacy.
