Leaked documents containing information about secret offshore accounts and tax havens are causing headaches for business people and politicians from Canada to the Philippines.
A 15-month investigation by journalists in 46 countries has revealed valuable information about the users of secret offshore accounts.
Millions of leaked digital files reveal information on 120,000 offshore companies and nearly 130,000 individuals including Russian oligarchs, Canadian lawyers and Mongolian politicians.
There is so much information contained in the files that the journalists are releasing it in waves.
And the first wave is already causing wipe-outs.
It's looking more and more like N Korea is a scam to cover their tracks. Funny that nobody in here mentioned this, even. In related news, worldwide Anonymous agents banded together to hack Isreal:

As the conflict in Gaza escalated this week, hacker group Anonymous launched a series of attacks on websites owned by the Israeli military, government and other institutions within Israel.
Dubbed "OpIsrael," the mass disruption began early Thursday with hundreds of distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, in which websites are flooded with traffic until they crash.
Since then, the scope of attacks has widened to include the deletion of government and financial databases, and the posting of more than 2,000 email addresses and passwords from an Israeli real estate website.
A series of tweets from @YourAnonNews, a Twitter account associated with the hacktivist group, claimed that databases belonging to Bank Jerusalem and the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs had been deleted. Echoing a famous meme originated from the video game "Zero Wing," the account declared Friday:
