According to BuzzFeed, the cyber attacks on Lynch very quickly took a turn for the nasty, as netizens scoured the web for more information about the young woman.

Identifying information about Lynch was circulated, as well as nude videos and pictures that she had allegedly appeared in.

Lynch, whose Twitter account has since been suspended, says her family has been subjected to death threats in recent days.

“Plz stop with the death threats towards my parents. They did nothing wrong. I was the one in the wrong and I am paying for being insensitive,” she tweeted Friday.

She later wrote that she had lost her job over the costume fiasco.

Some very upset Tweets!
