Teen who ‘hacked’ CIA director says Pentagon big is next

Teen who ‘hacked’ CIA director says Pentagon big is next
Deputy Secretary of Defense Robert Work 

The teen who claims to have hacked into CIA Director John Brennan’s personal email account said Monday he has already picked his next target: Deputy Defense Secretary Robert Work, the Pentagon’s No. 2 official.

The hacker told The Post, which broke the story, that he and a pal who call themselves “CWA” — for “Crackas With Attitude” — had identified Work’s online Verizon account and were preparing to launch an attack.

When asked what the plan was, he said: “Jack his account, leak his call logs, and, if there’s an email connected to it, we’ll just jack that, too.”

The US teen also described pulling a “Ferris Bueller”-style move so he could play hooky from high school on Monday.

He said he told his parents that he “wasn’t feeling very well” and began fielding interview requests from various news outlets via Twitter.

He told Sky News of his admiration for fugitive NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, saying he himself was “prolly gonna go [to] Russia . . . and chill with snowden.”

During the afternoon, he tweeted an image of a spreadsheet containing the purported Social Security numbers, phone numbers and email addresses of Brennan and more than a dozen current and former national security officials.
