Both Biden’s email and Twitter account have previously been compromised, a source told People, and past year a fake company was registered in the United Kingdom under the name Hunter Biden.
The lawyer and business executive said in a statement that he did not create the account that appears on the site.
“This account was clearly set up by someone else without my knowledge and I first learned about the account in question from the media”, Biden said.
As Vice President Joe Biden intensifies his preparations for a possible presidential marketing campaign, the super-PAC urging his run is increasing its staffing and operations and may have a presence in each U.S. state by subsequent week, organizers stated.
The Ashley Madison account shows a 2014 credit card charge to a card in the name of “Robert Biden”. Below, via Breitbart, is a screenshot of the account’s information that, among other things, reveals that the purported Biden was seeking relationships where “Anything goes”. It was created in 2014.
“From my understanding through press accounts, it is very easy to set up an account without someone’s knowledge as there is no requirement that an email address be verified”, Hunter explains.
“I am certain that is what happened in this case”, Biden said. His older brother, Beau Biden, died of brain cancer earlier this year. As reported earlier by NBC, Biden is also scheduled to take part Wednesday in a name with members of the Democratic Nationwide Committee to debate the Iran nuclear deal forward of a congressional vote in mid-September. Last year, he was discharged from the Naval Reserve after testing positive for cocaine.
