Hacking has become a very big problem lately, for software and consumer electronic companies, government agencies, news corporations, defense organizations, car manufacturers, and even candy companies. But according to a new report, even venture capitalists are at the risk of being hacked.  And once they are hacked, all their personal and business matters will be made public. This is what has happened to venture capitalist, John Doerr. John Doerr has been one of the early investors for many successful companies, including Amazon and Google.

The Smoking Gun website reports that a hacker who goes by the name Guccifer has hacked into John Doerr’s AOL email account and has sent several emails from John Doerr’s account to the Smoking Gun website. And along with this, the hacker has also sent the website screenshots of John Doerr’s contacts list, which includes Steve Jobs’ biographer Walter Isaacson, the Smoking Gun said.
