Ashley Madison infidelity site's customer data stolen

Ashley Madison is a dating site that specialises in match-making married people who wish to be unfaithful.

Now the company itself has become the victim of on-line infidelity - it's had its data hacked by a group calling itself "The Impact Team".

They claim to have complete access to Ashley Madison's database, including personal and financial records for all 37m users. And they're threatening to reveal users details if the site is not shut down.

Sarah Stolarz asked the British Divorce Lawyer Vanessa Lloyd-Platt for her views on what had happened.
