Small mobile publishing firm BlueToad has reported that they were the group that was hacked last week.

BlueToad's admission ends the week long question of who leaked 12m Apple ID's. Hacktivists had previously claimed the ID's came from the FBI. However, FBI officials denied having such data from the start.

In a statement posted on the company's website chief executive Paul Dehart apologized for the well publicized hack. "We sincerely apologize to our partners, clients, publishers, employees and users of our apps," Dehart said in his statement. "We take information security very seriously and have great respect and appreciation for the public's concern surrounding app and information privacy."
