Man with @ihackedthegovernment Instagram account tells judge, “I made a mistake”



“Moore intentionally accessed the Supreme Court’s electronic filing system without authorization using the stolen credentials of an authorized user (‘GS’) on 25 different days, sometimes returning to the site multiple times on the same day,” according to a government court filing. Moore used the access to obtain GS’s full name, email address, phone number, home address, date of birth, and private answers the person had given to three security questions.

“On July 29, August 18, and November 28, 2023, Moore publicly posted on his Instagram account, which used the handle ‘@ihackedthegovernment,’ screenshots of GS’s home page on the Supreme Court electronic filing system. Clearly visible to the public in the screenshots were GS’s name and a list of all of GS’s current and past electronic filing records,” the court filing said.

Moore similarly used stolen credentials to access one person’s My AmeriCorps account. He publicly posted the My AmeriCorps user’s name, date of birth, email address, home address, phone number, citizenship status, veteran status, service history, and the last four digits of his Social Security number, the government said.

Moore posted Marine veteran’s personal info

Moore is also said to have used stolen login credentials of a US Marine Corps veteran identified as “HW” to access the Department of Veterans Affairs ‘My HealtheVet’ platform on five different days. He obtained HW’s personal information, including prescribed medications and blood type.

“On October 13, 2023, Moore disclosed HW’s individually identifiable health information when he sent an associate a screenshot from HW’s MyHealtheVet account that identified HW and showed the medications he had been prescribed,” the government said. Moore then used his Instagram account to publicly post “HW’s personal information, including his full name, home address, service branch, email address, phone number, and blood type.”
