A list showing the full contact details of shoppers and donors who used the far-right English Defence League’s (EDL) clothing website has been published online.

The website was compromised by hackers early on Sunday morning who replaced it with their own page. Almost 350 people who used the website have had their names, addresses and email addresses published online.

The EDL had only just re-launched the clothing website after it was temporally shut down following an internal argument over the use of funds generated by the sale of merchandise.

Members of the EDL expressed anger over the data breach on the group’s Facebook page. This morning, some members were warning others never to purchase EDL merchandise online until proper security was in place. An EDL administrator told members not to panic as they woke up to find their details posted online.

Lax security meant that passwords used to log in and out of the website were not encrypted on the server leaving them freely available to the group who hacked the website this morning. The result of this was the ‘hijacking’ of Facebook, email and Ebay accounts of those members who used the same password on all of those websites. Despite this EDL administrators claim that many of names and addresses compromised ‘appear to have been made up’.
