According to a report from The Smoking Gun, the hacker was able to breach the email accounts of members of the Bush family and obtain personal correspondence, including photos and personal information from both Presidents.

While neither President had his personal account breached, the hacker is believed to have obtained correspondence from family members discussing the health of George H.W. Bush and speculation on funeral arrangements in the midst of a 2012 health scare.

The hacker, who identified himself with the alias "Guccifer" also posted photos of self-portrait paintings from George W Bush. Guccifer said in the report that he believes the US Secret Service is investigating the incident.
