European Central Bank Reports Hacking Incident

The European Central Bank said that hackers had broken into one of its databases and stolen information about journalists and others, in what appeared to be part of a blackmail scheme. The central bank said that the information stolen was from people who have registered for central bank events, which include news conferences or gatherings of people from other central banks in Europe or elsewhere.
