Saudi hacker strikes again

OxOmar has published details of 200 more Israeli credit cards.

The Saudi Arabian hacker who calls himself OxOmar last night published a list of 200 more Israeli credit cards. This is part of his ongoing hacking into Israeli sites and in response to counter-attacks by Israeli hackers.

Last week the Saudi hacker claimed to have details of 1 million Israeli credit cards although Israeli credit card companies insisted that he had only published details of 15,000 credit cards.

Israel Credit Cards-Cal Ltd. (ICC-Cal) (Visa) spokesperson Sagit Ophir said, "On the file published this evening there were details of 50 credit cards belonging to our customers. The cards were immediately blocked for telephone or online purchases."

At the start of his latest announcement OxOmar wrote, "Russian intelligence shut down my e-mail address at mail.ru.” He added that he is now using the gaza.net email service. “I saw that a few stupid people said they found me: one in Mexico, one in Riyadh, one in Dubai. Let me tell you: Nobody can find me. Mossad, do not waste your time.”

OxOmar continued that he is using an encryption that makes it difficult to locate him. He said, "If you look for me I'm sure you'll reach Helsinki, Minsk, New York, Tel Aviv, Haifa, Tokyo, Moscow and other places."

OxOmar also referred to Palestinian hackers who had succeeded in breaking into the homepage of Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon and placed a picture of a shoe on his face. He said, "We invite all hackers from the Muslim world to unite regardless of what you are thinking. I invite all Muslims to unite against Israel , the major enemy of Muslims.

OxOmar also mocked Israeli hackers who published details of 200 credit cards of Saudis. He claimed the cards had expired and anyway CVV codes were not published.
