Looks like Lulz is circling the wagons. The hacker group has partnered with a group called “Anonymous” to counter efforts to track them down. The website officialwire.com reports that Lulz announced its decision to team up with Anonymous on Twitter. The groups say their collaboration is called Operation Anti-Security. Their top priority is to steal and leak any classified government information, including email spools and documentation. Prime targets are banks and other high-ranking establishments. And, the groups are inviting other hackers to join them.
