“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.
A Biden rep also told People that the IP used to create the account is from Jacksonville, Florida, and that previous year someone set up a fake company under Hunter’s name in the UK.
News of the account registered to an email address belonging to Biden was first reported Monday by Breitbart News and comes as the vice president is weighing a 2016 White House bid. “This is, unfortunately, not the first time that someone has used my name and identity to try to discredit me”.
But he has stated he’s not the “Robert Biden”, the fan of “anything goes” with women, who appeared on the Ashley Madison website, which promotes infidelity in relationships with a slogan “Life’s short, have an affair”.
Biden added that he no longer uses the email address that was linked to the account, which was last used in June 2014. Ashley Madison doesn’t authenticate email addresses when users sign up, deliberately giving users the “plausible deniability” of membership.

Unconfirmed reports gleaned from the released data have linked the card to Biden’s D.C. address. Biden’s Twitter account was hacked and his email account may also have been hacked. Though the account is registered in the name of “Robert Biden” and lists the correct birth day and month, February 4, the birth year is 10 years off – 1980 instead of the actual 1970. The group goals to boost as a lot as $three million by the top of September so as to help Biden’s efforts if he decides to run. “If I were to announce to run, I have to be able to commit to all of you that I would be able to give it my whole heart and my whole soul, and right now, both are pretty well banged up”.
