Ashley Madison Hack Puts One Million Cheating Brits At Risk Of Exposure, But Twitter Shows No Mercy

Ashley Madison, a website for people looking to have affairs, was hacked on Monday by a group calling themselves the Impact Team, and Twitter is having a field day on the cheaters' behalf.

The hackers claim to have obtained personal details, naked selfies and the sexual fantasies of 37 million people, including up to one million Brits. By our calculations, that means that 1.5% of the population are quaking in their boots today.

The website, which ironically boasts a 'Trusted Security Award' and a 100% discreet service, is working with police to fix the problem.

But in the meantime, people have taken to Twitter to tell the users of Ashley Madison that they're about to get what's coming to them, and it's pretty hilarious...

A big fat 'serves you right' to all of the Ashley Madison members who are quaking in their boots today. I hope your partner is too.

Isn't #AshleyMadison a place for researching baby names? That's what my wife told me when she was pregnant with my daughter Tinder anyway

Don't care about this #AshleyMadison thing, but if the Dominos or Eat 24 websites ever get hacked, I will be soooo embarrassed.
