DNC calls FBI after detecting attempt to hack its voter database
Source: CNN
The Democratic National Committee contacted the FBI on Tuesday after it detected what it believes was the beginning of a sophisticated attempt to hack into its voter database, a Democratic source tells CNN.
The DNC was alerted in the early hours of Tuesday morning by a cloud service provider and a security research firm that a fake login page had been created in an attempt to gather usernames and passwords that would allow access to the party's database, the source said.
The page was designed to look like the access page Democratic Party officials and campaigns across the country use to log into a service called Votebuilder, which hosts the database, the source said, adding the DNC believed it was designed to trick people into handing over their login details.
The source said the DNC is investigating who may have been responsible for the attempted attack, but that it has no reason to believe its voter file was accessed or altered.

Complicit. 
They should make their own fake log-in page and catch the hackers when they try to log into it. They should at least be able to collect their IP addresses if nothing else.
They hired a top cyber security firm a long time ago. Come on, Fake, you wouldn't even have to wonder how they knew they'd been hacked, if you were so inclined. The article explains that.
Btw, how's your computer being put to use by malicious agents these days? If you're like almost everyone else here, you have absolutely no idea.
protecting their asset in the White House. I used to think it wasn't actually possible, but now I'm starting to believe that Trump could actually be an active asset of the Russian government. 
The Russian's 'Manchurian Candidate'. They have been grooming him for years I guess. My freaking god.
Donald Trump?
