Kim Kardashian has apparently become one of the latest victims of celebrity nude photo hackers.

Alleged nude photos of the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star surfaced online on Saturday along with additional nude photos which claim to feature Vanessa Hudgens, Avril Lavigne, Leelee Sobieski and Lake Bell.
The release comes less than a month after hackers leaked nude photos of numerous other female celebrities -- including Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton and Kirsten Dunst -- prompting speculation the new photo release is the work of the same hackers.
Kardashian's representative declined comment to E! News, while spokespeople for Hudgens, Lavigne, Sobieski and Bell also had no immediate comment.
The initial nude photo leak, which the FBI is still actively investigating, is reportedly believed to have occurred after hackers managed to successfully login to the women's Apple iCloud accounts and access their saved nude photos -- the majority of which appear to have been selfies they took themselves.

According to Apple CEO Tim Cook, the company believes the women either fell victim to phishing scams or the hackers were able to obtain their passwords by guessing their security questions correctly.
