Presidential Election 2016
'Anonymous' Threat! Hackers Threaten Ted Cruz With Alleged Prostitution Secret
April 19 2016, Updated 12:21 p.m. ET
Ted Cruz thought Donald Trump was the biggest roadblock on his journey to the White House, but RadarOnline.com has learned he's now facing an even more terrifying threat: This afternoon, an individual purporting to be a representative of the hacker group Anonymous posted a disturbing Twitter video that threatens to expose 'very dirty secrets' including information about Cruz 'visiting prostitutes!'
"Your lying during this presidential campaign has gotten out of control," the chilling video begins.
A voice alleges, "You have committed voter fraud to steal votes that do not belong to you … The fraud you have committed against Mr. Ben Carson will not be tolerated."
"Anonymous will not let this go without repercussions or consequences," the video states. "We will not sit and watch the citizens of America fall for it any longer."
"Almost every word that comes out of your mouth is a complete lie … and you, Mr. Cruz, have been hiding behind some very dirty secrets that lie beneath the surface … secrets that you believed would never haunt you."
As RadarOnline.com reported, Cruz's sister died of a drug overdose, and he was ticketed himself for possession of alcohol as a minor in 1987, a mistake he called "foolish."
But the video claims he is hiding worse secrets.

"It's time that we tell America what's hiding behind the curtain," the voice states, taunting, "… Do you recall visiting prostitutes?" (The clip offers no suggestion or proof that Cruz actually did consort with hookers, however.)
Finally, the video ends with an ultimatum: "Mr. Cruz, we are now demanding that you exit this race within 24 hours, or Anonymous will release all of the information we have found … Your so-called underground hacks that you think were done in the dark will be brought out for all the public to see …Your disgusting behavior … will go viral on every social media platform."
Anonymous has not officially claimed authorship of the video.
