Syrian Electronic Army strikes again, now hacking into the global phone directory “truecaller.”

The hacker group posts a tweet, “Sorry @Truecaller, we needed your database, thank you for it 🙂 http://truecaller.com  #SEA #SyrianElectronicArmy” according to ehackingnews.

Hackers added another tweet for ehackingnews, that includes the database host, database name,  username, and password in pure text.

SEA claimed to have accessed 7 databases, in which the main database is 450GB all because of outdated wordpress version.
