The good citizens of Albuquerque were threatened en masse on Wednesday when someone affiliated with ISIS, also known as the Islamic State, hacked the Albuquerque Journal‘s mobile app.
The hijacking of the app expressed support for the extremest Islamist group while warning residents of Albuquerque that their personal secrets were being collected through mobile devices.
The post, which was set with a picture of a masked Muslim man, read as follows.
“You’ll see no mercy infidels. We are already here, we are in your PCs, in each house, in each office. With Allah’s permission we begin with Albuquerque.”
The story, which carried the unmistakable title of Christmas Will Never Be Merry Any Longer and shows the caption “I love ISIS,” acknowledged a relationship between the U.S. led and sanctioned bombings of ISIS-held areas as one motive for the cyberattack.
As reported by the Santa Fe New Mexican, as far back as September, various media outlets reported that ISIS planned to launch what it dubbed a “cyber caliphate” attack targeting technology in the U.S. with hacking using encrypted software that makes identifying the culprit responsible difficult.
As the ominous post continued, “While the us [sic] and its satellites are bombing the Islamic State, we broke into your home networks and personal devices and know everything about you,” leading to some panic among residents of Albuquerque.
On top of that, the post alleged, “We know all personal data of Albuquerque locals: Where you live, what you eat, your diseases and even your health insurance cards.”
KRWG reported that the ISIS posting was removed at about 9 a.m. and replaced with a story with the headline, Bonuses for APD brass draw fire.
The author of the post, whoever he, she, or they may be, ended with the chilling threat to the residents of Albuquerque, “You will look around more often, will call up your children more often, think of your security more often, but that won’t help you.”
Oh boy just another wannabe
Apparently they don't like our MISSLEtoe.
Every mosque in the US should be torn to the ground and every muslim kicked out.
Come to my community isis infidels.
Let's see now…a bunch of towel heads are going to jump on their camels…ride up through Russia…across the Bearing Straights down through Alaska, the Yukon, Oregon, California, through Nevada, Arizona and in to New Mexico and attack Albuquerque? Sure…Sure they are!
I like that they're all such chickensh*ts they always hide their face, like klan members. I think the tribes can take care of any IS threat.
Only thing I can see, we catch them smear hog fat on them, execute them, then feed them to the hogs, lets not wait for Hillary to sign a executive order for us to love our enemy's!
bunch of idle threats from the towel head false profit muhammad following idiots. This is why i follow them around the malls just in case.
Connie, good idea, been saying this for a long time, but of course the libtards wont go for it with ther're "rights for everyone" attitudes…Pathetic
Hey genius, you should type all kinds of threatening stuff on the internet. No one ever uses it against you. haha
If they want to threaten the US…the least they could do is learn proper English….
Not a problem: 'ISIS'; can someone say 'bye-bye' Middle East starting with you Islamist pigs?
Do these guys have any idea how many guns we have? We're not exactly sitting ducks.
Yea, you're a bad ass. Who decided you spoke for your community. Are you frigging nuts buying in to some jerk pulling a prank?
Then the hogs would have to eat shit to get the taste out of their mouth
Darren Rovatti I tend to feel as angry as you do about people who threaten our country. But do you seriously want to amend the Constitution so we can take away the citizenship and kick out people who were born here? Don't you think you're taking a risk? What if they included in that group to have their citizenship taken away and kicked out people who were "bigoted, irrational, extreme wing nut assholes?" That would put you and Connie Maynor in serious risk of being kicked out of the country.
ED oyu are an idiot, ive been to Iraq 4 tours damn right im a badass
Ed Karesky Ed you are wonderful thanks for keeping it real. Because if we can kick out muslims let's kick out christians too.
no murders and you need to deal with your pig fascination in therapy
the implication is that they are IN Albuquerque right now
Marshall Phillips that doesn't make you the leader of Albuquerque
Jennifer Keller Christens have stopped beheadings and burnings. Islam has not.
nobody said anything about albquerque, I said my community
Isn't a pity Darren that there are no patriots in America who have any testicles left. Too busy watching tv I imagine. Pity the poor dumb Americans afraid to get off thier dead asses
Jennifer Keller You want to give me Therapy Jenny?
Jennifer Keller Do you know that Muslims are the only people not allowed to become Citizens in Japan. The reason…Muslims are the only folks who cannot get along with other religions or groups. They use our constitution against us. We will be defeated within, not by conservatives or Christians, but by liberals like you folks who have no clue as to the dangers of Islam.
Ed, how do you know this is a prank? This is what the Bush Administration thought when the received numerous threats about terrorist attack on 9-11. Please educate yourself about Islam. Visit Whalid Shaboets website and enlighten yourself. Just a little information on Whalid, he is a former PLO Terrorist. Oh and Jennifer Keller, who died and made you queen of Albuquerque?
Here's a new twist on this, how about we change the Constitution so we can kick out the bad and only keep the good, and we let Ole Saint Nic decide who is good and who is bad lol
Sounds like a group of grinches, and not a serious terrorist group at all. So what if they know I have chronic diarrhea. A crap on all of their houses.
Is it true that ISIS guys have to fellate three camels to prove their loyalty or are they just blowing two?
were's that leave you too ass hole, butt buddies, get real who's on top…..
So someone hacks someone else on the internet, and makes an identity claim…and we're supposed to take that at face value.
I may not be from Missouri but I'm still going to say "show me".
@ Jennifer Keller, Please don't compare Christians to Islamic. You are in the wrong country girl. You think the Islamic is all that, start packing, and we will all help you, and don't let the door hit you on the backside when you leave…
Congress especially Obama should be careful on foreign relations with Muslim countries, recently Obama is so close to Malaysia's PM, golfing away in hawaii, Malaysia is well known recently with its government being extreme with non-muslims minority and raiding churches on islmic religious interest confiscating bibles, Malaysia is racist a fact in South Asia. Obama example of this country should not be in friendly relationship, as in the past, so called healthy working relationships become years later enemies, choose allies smartly not aggressively, on the other hand Malaysia have been in great terms with China, but ofcourse Malaysia itself is torturing its own Chinese citizens. STOP LOBBYING the extremists.
