More Female Celebrities Have Apparently Had Their Photos Hacked

Yesterday, it emerged that private images of Emma Watson have been leaked onto the dark web, with some claiming that the haul included nude images. Now, it's been confirmed that 'intimate' photos of Amanda Seyfried and her ex-boyfriend have also been leaked.

Many people are dubbing the hack as 'The Fappening 2.0'.

Ryan Collins, the man behind the original 'Fappening' back in 2014, received 18 months in prison after leaking a whole host of nudes - including that of Jennifer Lawrence.

Emma Watson's publicist confirmed the leak, but insisted that none of the photos feature the Harry Potter star naked.

Emma's representative told The Telegraph: "Photos from a clothes fitting Emma had with a stylist a couple of years ago have been stolen. They are not nude photographs.

"Lawyers have been instructed and we are not commenting further."

Meanwhile, Amanda's legal team is reportedly 'going after' a website which posted her nude' photos after sending a threatening letter to Celeb Jihad, reports TMZ.

They refer to 'intimate moments' with her ex-boyfriend. The letter also says that the pictures were illegally obtained by a third party, and leaked to the website without Amanda's consent.

Reddit users have claimed to have also seen images of model Alyssa Arce, actresses Jillian Murray and Rhona Mitra, comedian Iliza Shlesinger and figure skater Analeigh Tipton.

Some people are claiming that the images of Emma Watson originated on the Dark Web.

This is a part of the Internet that is only accessible via special software and is known to contain child pornography, weapons dealing and human trafficking sites.

Yesterday, a Reddit user claimed: "There may be a few more names added to that list but these are the big two (Emma and Amanda).

"Don't want to break any Reddit rules so no links right now but there should be some really good drama over the next few days."

Emma has been threatened with a hack before as she spoke out about feminism.

Comments at the time included: "She makes stupid feminist speeches at UN, and now her nudes will be online."

However this hack threat turned out to be false.
