}}{{Orphan|date=February 2017}}Legion is a hacktivist group that has attacked some rich and powerful people in India by hacking their twitter handlers. The group claims to have access to many email servers in India and has the encryption keys used by Indian banks over the Internet.[1][2]

History

Legion came in news when it launched its series of attacks starting with Rahul Gandhi, the current president of Indian National Congress.[3]

Reports say that not only Rahul's twitter handler was hacked but his mail server was also hacked. The very next day, INC's twitter handler was also hacked and tweeted irrelevant content. The group then hacked twitter handlers of Vijay Mallya, Barkha Dutt and Ravish Kumar.[4]
