British MP Louise Mensch claims that members of the Anonymous and LulzSec hacktivist groups have threatened her children.

The Conservative MP, who has had a higher profile lately after questioning Rupert Murdoch as part of the investigation into phone hacking and her run-ins with Piers Morgan, posted a series of messages on Twitter revealing that her young children had been threatened:

Had some morons from Anonymous /Lulzsec threaten my children via email. As I'm in the States, be good to have somebody from the UK police advise me where I should forward the email. To those who sent it; get stuffed, losers.

Oh and I'm posting it on Twitter because they threatened me telling me to get off Twitter. Hi kids! ::waves::

I've contacted the police via the House of Commons and the email is with them now. I don't bully easily, kids. Or in fact at all.

Most likely a fake email ........ The VIPs get this type of threats all the time.......The kids from Anonymous and LulzSec aren;t violent and they love 'to be love' by people...so I don;t see them supporting this type of action.
Like in '5 november...Facebook will go down' case this is most likely someone using their name.

I honestly think it's more like an anti-hacker propaganda, cause they're getting support from the standard internet person. I can't believe they would do something that stupid tbh.
