Anonymous claims to have leaked the personal details of Donald Trump.

The hacktivist collective has posted a video that - they claim - links to the phone number and social security number of the presidential hopeful.

It comes days after the cyber-crusaders declared "total war" on Mr. Trump and vowed to shut down his "inconsistent and hateful" campaign websites.

Released on YouTube and reported on Counter Current News, the video shows a Guy Fawkes mask accompanied by a sinister computerised voice-over.

"Donald Trump has set his ambitions on the White House in order to promote an agenda of fascism and xenophobia" it says.

"He has proposed targeting family members of suspected terrorists for assassination, even while acknowledging they are innocent.

"It would only lead to more violence from those whose families were killed by the Trump regime.

"Donald Trump is an enemy of the constitution and the natural rights it enshrines.

"We call on all of you and millions of others to take action against Donald Trump," says the voice-over.

Underneath the video are links to document-sharing website Pastebin where the alleged details of Mr Trump have been uploaded.

"We have attached a gift, of sorts: Trump's social security number, cellphone number and other details that may be able to assist you all in independently investigating this would-be dictator," says the computerised voice.

It goes on to say that the details - which have not been verified - are for informational purposes only. And that deciding to use them for anything ironically means stepping outside of Anonymous' much-cherished group mentality.

"Do with them what you will - bearing in mind that you alone are responsible for your actions," the voice instructs.

Anonymous has categorised its campaign against Mr Trump with the hashtag #OpWhiteRose which it says will help hackers unify against the billionaire politician.

The video was uploaded to YouTube on March 17 and at the time of writing has only collected 1,704 views.

This is not the first time Donald Trump has been targeted by the group.

In December 2015, the hacktivist group attacked www.trumptowerny.com , after Trump demanded that Muslims should be banned from entering the United States.
