Mitt Romney's tax returns 'stolen' in break-in at accounting office Sep 6th 2012, 08:14 Quote: The Secret Service said on Wednesday it is investigating the reported theft of copies of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's federal tax records during a break-in at an accounting office in Franklin, Tennessee. Someone claiming responsibility demanded $1 million not to make them public. An anonymous letter sent to Romney's accounting firm and political offices in Tennessee and published online sought $1 million in hard-to-trace Internet currency to prevent the disclosure of his tax filings, which have emerged as a key focus during the 2012 presidential race. Romney released his 2010 tax returns and a 2011 estimate in January, but he has refused to disclose his returns from earlier years. Romney's accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers, said there was no evidence that any Romney tax files were stolen. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...=feeds-newsxml Quote: Bitcoin Update Mitt Romney has received an extortion demand from hackers claiming to have sourced his previous tax returns and providing bitcoin addresses to either release or not release the information. The secret service has seized a usb drive apparently containing encrypted data which will be released on the 28th September. If you are going to send bitcoins to the addresses make sure you use a coin mixing service first! http://bitcoin.me/day/2012/09/05/ Don't know if this image is proof of anything or just filler for the article.
