Infamous internet group “Anonymous” claims it gained access into Palin’s account, gov.palin @ yahoo.com, early this morning. It sent images of her inbox to WikiLeaks, which published them. The WikiLeaks site is currently unavailable, though it’s not clear if it’s been taken down or is just overwhelmed with traffic. We were able to grab a few of the emails below (click to enlarge):

A rep for the McCain-Palin campaign called the hack a “shocking invasion of the governor’s privacy and a violation of law.” He also said the evidence had been “turned over to the appropriate authorities.”

Palin has come under fire recently for using her Yahoo Mail account to conduct official government business. The Anchorage Daily News ran a report Monday that questioned whether that was part of a plan “to get around the public records law through broad exemptions or private e-mail accounts.”

Palin’s staff has maintained her use of the account is perfectly legal.

Editors note: the emails are posted for public interest only. The Inquisitr does not condone email hacking. We consider the screenshots to be fair use under law as they cover a public topic and such information is publicly available, even if the original methods used to obtain them were not legal
