One expert, who had seen the files, said the oldest photos date back to December 2011 and the newest from 14 August. It remains unclear how the images and videos, which were not publicly available, were accessed by the hacker. The gymnast McKayla Maroney wrote that "the fake photos of me are crazy!!", while a spokesman for Ariana Grande said photographs of her were "completely fake". The American actor and singer Victoria Justice, who was also named in the file, denied any nude photos of her were real in a tweet on Monday, writing: "These so called nudes of me are FAKE people. We intend to pursue anyone disseminating or duplicating these illegally obtained images to the fullest extent possible." In a statement, the lawyer for model and actor Kate Upton said: "This is obviously an outrageous violation of our client Kate Upton's privacy. She added: "Knowing those photos were deleted long ago, I can only imagine the creepy effort that went into this. "To those of you looking at photos I took with my husband years ago in the privacy of our home, hope you feel great about yourselves," she wrote on Twitter. She condemned the actions of voyeurs who were continuing to access the images since news of the hack broke. The actor Mary Elizabeth Winstead confirmed that the photos of her were real and said they had been taken in private with her husband and had been deleted before they were posted by the hacker. The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence." A spokesman for Lawrence said: "This is a flagrant violation of privacy. Lawyers for the actor immediately threatened to prosecute any publication publishing the pictures. The hacker also apparently posted images of his computer desktop, which included what appeared to be an image of Lawrence.

Some of the celebrities targeted immediately said the images were fake, while others confirmed their veracity and said they had been taken in private and had never been shared. The photographs of mainly female celebrities were shared online after an anonymous hacker using the name Tristan posted what was claimed were authentic images on the 4chan website, an online message board used for sharing pictures.
