@2600 Please tell me that when you release it, you'll tell the press that it was obtained by "the hacker known as 4chin"

@2600 @realDonaldTrump. How about $10K for Hillary's deleted e-mails?

There have been many recent attacks on the Democratic National Committee including the Guccifer 2.0/Wikileaks release of DNC emails and more recently a possible hack of some of the party member’s phones. Some say that hackers have been focusing too much on exposing the DNC and not enough on the RNC. Perhaps this is the opportunity they have been waiting for.
2600 has also extended the offer to Trump himself:
Incidentally, we will also pay @realDonaldTrump $10K if he gives us his tax return first. Or anyone in his campaign or family. Fair is fair.
