Avengers star Scarlett Johansson has contacted the FBI about the alleged hacking of her cell phone that

apparently led to nude photographs of the actress being posted on the Web yesterday.

The L.A. Times reports:

“FBI officials Wednesday confirmed a “continuing probe” into “a series of computer intrusions” targeting celebrities.

FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller would not say how many people had been victimized or give specifics about the length of the investigation, the nature of the hacks or how many suspects were involved.

“I can confirm that the FBI is investigating a series of computer intrusions targeting high-profile figures,” Eimiller said.

I’m not going to repost the photos, which are easily findable if you really want to do that sort of thing. I’d urge you against it.
