Despite the supposed crack down on the culprits of last month's celebrity nude photo leak scandal, the hackers have struck again. The targets of the latest naked pictures leaked online are Liam Payne and Kim Kardashian.

An explicit yet grainy picture of Liam Payne was uploaded in the early hours of Saturday night and is still up on the site until today. The man, who was purportedly identified as Payne, is seen sitting naked on a bed. He had nothing on except for a cap, which he used to cover his crotch, as reported by Mirror. However, the grainy snap only had a vague resemblance to the 'One Direction' singer. No comments or reaction has been released from the singer's camp as of the moment.

The fans are in uproar in support of the 21-year-old singer. Within minutes of the photo's appearance on Twitter, Payne's fans began claiming that the picture is fake and the work of Photoshop experts.

Unreality TV is claiming that some of his avid fans have spotted the flaws in the nude photo, which further reiterated their claim against the authenticity of the picture. They claim that the famous tattoos of the 'One Direction' singer are not evident on the naked man's body. In addition, they pointed out that the man has a heavier build than their famous idol.

On the other hand, socialite and reality TV star Kim Kardashian's nude pics also appeared on Twitter, as reported by the Mirror. The picture appeared to be taken when the star was standing in front of a mirror of a luxurious bathroom and taking selfies.

The woman seen in the snapped photo has strong resemblance to the star. Another brunette woman taking close-up photos of her breasts and hips through what appears a Blackberry mobile phone can be seen as well. Huffington Post reported that the alleged nude photos of the stars were leaked on 4chan early Saturday morning. These photos immediately started to trend on Twitter. No reaction has been released by Kardashian yet.

These incidents once again remind us of last month's scandal involving nude photos of various celebrities, such as Jennifer Lawrence, Ariana Grande, Kate Upton and Victoria Justice. While Grande did not confirm whether the photo is authentic, Lawrence's spokesperson confirmed the legitimacy of the leaked photo and the required legal action has been initiated.
