Hunter Moore, 26, creator of the ‘revenge porn’ website IsAnyoneUp.com and self-promoted bad-boy, is under FBI investigation, confirmed ABC Nightline.
Moore operated the site that allowed scorned lovers to post nude photos of their ex-partners. It also allowed people to comment.
He sold the website, and it was shut down in April.
Moore’s site allowed anyone to upload sexually explicit photos and videos, including screen grabs of Facebook accounts and links to Twitter accounts, without subjects’ permission or even knowledge, says Nightline. Moore boasted nearly 5 million hits a month, with some of those users posting comments that added insult to injury for those who found themselves unwilling internet porn stars, ABC reported.
One of those unwilling stars was aspiring actress Kayla Laws, 25, who claimed her computer was hacked and private nude photos ended up on IsAnyoneUp.com.
Her outraged mother, private investigator Charlotte Laws, initiated a cease-and-desist and take-down notice to Moore, who refused. Mom says she then convinced the FBI to investigate whether daughter’s computer was hacked.
Moore denied ever hacking any nude photos.
