Those responsible for the original hacking of HBO, which saw 1.5 terabytes of data stolen including Game Of Thrones scripts and personal employee data, have now apparently released even more information.
According to Mashable, they’ve received login credentials for a number of HBO’s social media, including the official HBO, Game Of Thrones and Westworld accounts on Twitter.
The group who call themselves the ‘Mr. Smith group’ also claim to ‘have access to many HBO Platforms already’, and have threatened to release the season seven finale ahead of its air date.
They warned: ‘Be ready for GOT S& E6 &E7 as soon as possible.’
While the website says they haven’t attempted to login into the accounts for legal reasons to check their authenticity, the group have previously given them information including shooting schedules for Westworld season 2 and Game Of Thrones.
The hackers are reportedly demanding around $6.5 million in Bitcoin from HBO in exchange for the information not to be leaked.
This threat follows a number of leaks over this current season of Game Of Thrones, with HBO Spain accidentally leaking the sixth episode and four people recently being arrested in India over the fourth episode leak.
Metro.co.uk has reached out to HBO for comment.
Game Of Thrones season seven continues on HBO Sunday, on Sky Atlantic on Mondays in the UK at 9pm. You can catch-up on Now TV.
