LOS ANGELES: In the latest twist in the data hack involving top entertainment law firm Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks, the party purportedly responsible for the hack, which calls itself REvil, has threatened to auction off a vast amount of sensitive documents from some of the firm's top clients. It laid out a schedule beginning on July 1, with docs from Mariah Carey, Nicki Minaj and Lebron James, followed two days later by Bad Boy Records, MTV and Universal, and then an unspecified one on July 5.
The first three bids start at US$600,000 (RM2.6mil); Bad Boy is US$750,000 (RM3.2mil) and the latter two US$1mil (RM4.28mil).
