Utah County Commissioner admits to using Ashley Madison, but denies having affair
Have you heard of the website Ashley Madison?
According to its website “Ashley Madison is the online personals & dating destination for casual encounters, married dating, discreet encounters and extramarital affairs.”
This data breach included usernames, passwords, credit card information, and addresses for the various clients.
I am certain every person who used this site is worried that their name will appear in the data after it was hacked.
Would you be interested in knowing who spent money on these services?
While there have been stories nationwide of people who have participated with Ashley Madison, even Utah County isn’t immune.
According to the site’s records, Utah County Commissioner Greg Graves spent $522.99 at the site between 2010 and 2014, signing up on the site multiple times. These several accounts matching email, credit card, address, and names match Utah County Commissioner Greg Graves.
His profile indicates that he wasn’t just browsing on the site, with him stating that he wanted to “play ball!” and was “Ready and willing to please!”
He further states: “I just know what I don’t like! I am not picky but believe you must find each other attractive. I know that I want a woman who will let me give her pleasure at any hour of the day!”
In another profile linked to his address and credit card he states: “I am into sports and having a good time! I really enjoy cooking and giving pleasure! I want to treat someone to all of the passions they desire!”
It is embarrassing that the password to one of his accounts was “Cougars” – but maybe he was referring to the term for older women, not the sports team. But alas, one account was tied to BYULOVER@GMAIL.COM
Commissioner Graves admitted to being a customer of Ashley Madison but says “I have never had an affair or met with anyone to have an affair either.” He said the charges were to look up and peruse other profiles.
Commissioner Graves doesn’t believe this has any impact on his public service. Graves pointed out that all these charges occurred prior to his filing for Utah County Commissioner.
**UPDATE – the metadata shows that one of the accounts was accessed on April 7, 2014. The convention was April 12.
***UPDATE #2 – one of the accounts was set up with his campaign account – greggraves.official@gmail.com.
