The Ashley Madison hack may have claimed its first high-profile victim.

Gawker is reporting that Josh Duggar allegedly had an account with the site, created to help married individuals find people with whom they could have affairs.

The account said that Duggar was allegedly looking for 'conventional sex, experimenting with sex toys, one-night stands, sharing fantasies, sex talk,' and more.

One of the accounts was closed around the same time it was first reported that Josh, 27, had molested four of his siblings as a teenager. The reality star and his family have not yet commented on the report.

The revelation came hours after users of the infidelity site were sent scrambling to control the damage - and save their marriages - after hackers exposed personal data from the controversial seduction forum used by 37 million worldwide.

User? A report claims that Josh Duggar (above with wife Anna and daughter Meredith) had multiple Ashley Madison accounts

Hacked: Josh Duggar, son of Jim Bob and Michelle pictured here with Mike Huckabee, was the first celebrity to be allegedly outed for using the infidelity site Ashley Madison

Names, ages, addresses, phone numbers, credit card details and detailed sexual fantasies have been leaked.

Hackers from a group called 'the Impact Squad' posted the 9.7 gigabyte file called 'Time's Up!' on the dark web claiming 'cheating dirtbags do not deserve anonymity'.

More than 10,000 users were found to be registered under .gov and .mil email addresses - the official domain names of the American military and government.

Other institutions rocked by the leaks include famed educational institutions like Harvard and Yale, and global bodies such as the Vatican and the UN.

Employers from powerhouse companies such as Boeing, JP Morgan, Bank of America and Sony were also said to be part of the list.

Yesterday, several websites popped up across the globe allowing panicked members and suspicious spouses to search the information. Many were forced to close because they could not cope with demand.

The majority of the 37 million users are married men but many of the email addresses have already been dismissed as false.

Ashley Madison doesn't verify addresses which means many users could have registered using the details of others or with made up contact details.

However, Gawker claims the evidence against Duggar is much more damning than the appearance of an email address.

The site reports: 'Someone using a credit card belonging to a Joshua J. Duggar, with a billing address that matches the home in Fayetteville, Arkansas owned by his grandmother Mary - a home that was consistently on their now-cancelled TV show, and in which Anna Duggar gave birth to her first child - paid a total of $986.76 for two different monthly Ashley Madison subscriptions from February of 2013 until May of 2015.'

They also report that a second account was created in July 2013 'that was linked to his home in Oxon Hill, Maryland.'

Josh, 27, lived at this residence with his wife and children while working as a family values lobbyist for the Family Research Council in Washington DC.

Among the type of woman he was allegedly looking for, the profile said; 'naughty girl, aggressive / take charge girl, high sex drive and creative and adventurous.'

The birthday listed for the first account is February 3, 1988, and the birthday listed for the second account it is March 2, 1988.

Josh's birthday is March 3, 1988.

The second account was reportedly 'paid on a monthly basis until May of 2015.'

Gawker also reported Josh had an active OkCupid account. He allegedly did not use an actual picture of himself.

Josh and his wife Anna were married in 2008 after they began courting in 2007, sharing their first kiss on the altar.

This all comes just one month after TLC announced they were cancelling 19 Kids and Counting.

The show had been in limbo since May after revelations that Josh molested five children including four of his sisters in a bombshell police report.

He was never charged with a crime for the incidents as by the time police learned of the offenses the statue of limitations had passed, and his parents did not notify authorities in an official capacity at any point after learning about their son's actions.

For 10 seasons, it had chronicled the home life of Arkansas couple Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and their now-19 children including Josh.

Like Jim Bob and Michelle, Josh and Anna do not believe in birth control, and their children are all 5-years-old or younger.

The couple have four children; Mackynzie, Michael, Marcus and Meredith.

Meredith was born last month.

The mysterious 'Impact Team' began threatening Ashley Madison last month and threatened to release information unless the service and its sister site Established Men was closed.

It is not clear who the group are and what their motivation is for revealing the names of adulterers and exposing the inner workings of the site.

Interestingly they appear more interested in targeting cheating men than women. Avid Media's Cougar Life was left off their list.

Avid Life Media confirmed some of the hacked data had come from the site but said the 'vast majority' was not related. They called the data breach 'an act of criminality' and the FBI is now investigating.

A separate file allegedly also details credit card transactions although the website strongly denies they ever stored such data on their servers.

The site promises its members complete 'anonymity' and has the motto: 'Life is short. Have an affair'. Now security experts say the data breach will not only end marriages but could also leave people open to blackmail.

Previously describing the hack as 'an act of criminality', the company said it was fully cooperating with law enforcement to find the hackers.

'The criminal, or criminals, involved in this act have appointed themselves as the moral judge, juror, and executioner, seeing fit to impose a personal notion of virtue on all of society.

'We will not sit idly by and allow these thieves to force their personal ideology on citizens around the world.'

Meanwhile the leak's repercussions are being felt across the globe. In the UK, married Edinburgh MP Michelle Thomson found her email among the leaked names. She insists it is an out-of-use address that must have been registered in a smear campaign.

In Australia, a pair of radio hosts sparked outrage by telling a woman live on air that her husband was listed on the site.

The woman, given the alias 'Jo', called in during a segment on suspicious partners, hosted by NOVA hosts Fitzy and Wippa on Thursday.

THE 'CULPRITS': US FEDERAL AND STATE OFFICE EMAILS THAT CAME UP MOST IN LIST OF ALLEGED ASHLEY MADISON USERS FEDERAL Army - 6788 Navy - 1665 United States Marine Corp - 809 Veterans Association - 104 Bureau of Prisons - 88 Navy Medicine - 62 Army - 55 US Postal Service - 52 US Coast Guard - 46 Department of Homeland Security - 45 White House - 44 Social Security Administration - 42 State Department - 33 NASA - 28 Federal Aviation Administration - 17 STATE Kentucky State Government - 73 New York Department of Education - 27 Montgomery County, Maryland - 22 Michigan - 21 Oklahoma City - 21 Maine - 14 Port Authority of New York and New Jersey - 14 Utah - 13 Arizona Department of Corrections - 11 Baltimore City - 11 Advertisement

The radio duo had stumbled across a hack website that leaked users of the adulterous dating site and entered Jo's husband's details into the system on her request.

'We're putting him in right now and his details have revealed that he's actually on the website Jo,' Fitzy told the shocked woman.

'Are you freaking kidding me?' She responded, seemingly surprised by the news. 'These websites are disgusting,' she said before abruptly hanging up.

And they aren't the only ones finding humor in the scandal. Memes poking fun at sweating husbands fearing they will be caught and gleeful divorce lawyers who may make money from their infidelity are already sweeping the internet.

As a result others suggested that Ashley Madison should change its motto from 'Life is short. Have an affair' to 'life is short. Hire an attorney'.

CEO Noel Biderman, the self-styled 'King of Infidelity' who set up the website with his wife Amanda, believes that a hacker with ties to the site's technical services is the culprit behind the privacy breach.

'I've got their profile right in front of me, all their work credentials. It was definitely a person here that was not an employee but certainly had touched our technical services,' Biderman told Krebs On Security.

Last month, experts warned the stolen data could be sold on to criminal gangs or used to blackmail members.

One hacking insider, named only as Vinnie, told Sky News the valuable data will likely be sold on the 'Dark Web' to 'the highest bidder'.

The hackers have claimed that even cheaters who have paid Ashley Madison a $19 fee to delete their information from its files are at risk because they were never fully deleted.

'Full Delete netted ALM $1.7mm in revenue in 2014. It’s also a complete lie,' the Impact Team wrote last month. 'Users almost always pay with credit card; their purchase details are not removed as promised, and include real name and address, which is of course the most important information the users want removed.'

The breach comes as a bitter blow to multi-millionaire Biderman, who controversially said he would use it to cheat on his own wife.

WHAT DID THE HACKERS STEAL AND WHAT DATA HAVE THEY REVEALED? Profile: This is a genuine profile of an American user of Ashley Madison, including her sexual preferences, although it has been put in this form by MailOnline for clarity The hacking of Ashley Madison represents one of the biggest data breaches in online history, with the personal and most intimate details of users now published online. Hackers have simply stolen all raw data about users and published them exactly as they appear on the website's database. For example, the profile above purports to be for a woman from Arizona, in her twenties. The leaked file on her reveals her account nickname, full name, date of birth address, zip code, phone numbers, email addresses, ethnicity, weight, height and even longitude and latitude of their home. Users are also asked to set out what they are looking for, what kind of sexual partner they want and their sexual fantasies. These are all numbered between 1 and 60, and an index explaining what these all mean have also been released by hackers. The passwords of the users appear to be the only piece of information that was encrypted. Security experts fear that this information could be abused by criminals willing to blackmail individuals or sell on their details. James Maude, senior security engineer at Avecto said: 'A hidden danger here is the amount of data now out there and the impact this could have on areas such as national security, government policy and law enforcement. 'At first glance, it may look like the Ashley Madison data leak will cause nothing more than embarrassment. But this type of sensitive personal information can be used by criminals to generate serious leverage against an individual, when combined with details released from other attacks. 'It seems like Ashley Madison was cheating on its clients with a number of bad security and data storage practices. The breach shows employees using 'Password1234' and contains seven years of credit card transaction details. Researchers have verified that some of the credit cards are not only valid but still in daily use. 'Although the password for the accounts were stored in a way which makes wholesale decryption unlikely, it is entirely possible that a targeted attack on an individual account could crack the password. This could lead to the compromise of other accounts such as online banking or emails if a shared password was used. Advertisement

He claims the site is a help for couples who find themselves stuck in a rut or who want sex but don't want a divorce.

Users can browse Ashley Madison for free but buy credit to send messages to other members. 100 credits costs $49 and each message costs five credits.

WILL ASHLEY MADISON BE SUED BY MEMBERS OUTED AS CHEATERS? Ashley Madison could be sued by millions of members outed by hackers, lawyers have said. Data protection specialist Paula Barrett, from Eversheds, believes there may be a rush for 'no-win no fee' cases as firms rush to cash in on the shame. She told the Financial Times: 'It would not surprise me if people came forward to bring claims against Ashley Madison'. Those who had accounts set up maliciously by enemies anmay also have grounds to sue. A woman from the St. Louis, Missouri, identified in court papers as 'Jane Doe,' filed a federal lawsuit against Avid Life just days after the breach became public, saying that she had paid the website a $19 fee to permanently delete her information. The hackers have claimed that the information of people who paid the fee never actually was deleted, citing it as one of their reasons for the attack. Others say, however, people may not want to go to court because they would be confirm they were on the 'cheat list'. One web developer who helped publish the data after it was released said: 'To Ashley Madison's development team: You should be embarrassed for your train wreck of a database (and obviously security), not sanitising your phone numbers to your database is completely amateur, it's as if the entire site was made by students.'

Speaking to the London Evening Standard about his own marriage last year, he said: 'We're incredibly communicative about our sexual needs.

'But if I woke up beside my wife and it was the 200th day we hadn't been intimate with one another and it looked like nothing would change, I would cheat so fast.

'I would cheat long before I would get a divorce. If you have children that you love and a home that you built together and a future that you planned — why would you give that up just for sex?'

'The reason people have affairs is that they want to stay married.

'What I get is a lot of people who come back to me and say: 'Listen, this has made me a better partner.'

'They were angry and taking things out on their family. The sexual frustration they were feeling, they start having the affair and all of a sudden, that stress is removed. It's very cathartic for those people.

'If you come home and you've had an affair earlier in the day, it might be easier not to be frustrated with your partner. The conversation could take a different directional tone and that can lead to intimacy.

Mr Biderman came up with the idea for the extra-marital dating site in the 1990s, after a career as a sports attorney apparently made him realize how much time and money his clients spent on mistresses while they were away on tour.

He previously claimed the site was worth at least $1 billion.

However, Impact Team says they are also exposing a web of lies at the center of the website's mission and can prove the majority of the female profiles are fakes.

'90-95 per cent of actual users are male,' their statement says. 'Chances are your man signed up on the world's biggest affair site, but never had one. He just tried to. If that distinction matters.'
