Singer Rihanna and actress Amber Heard have become the latest victims of the celebrity photo hacking scandal it has been revealed.

Two topless images of the singer appeared online via 4chan and Reddit yesterday (Sept 21).

The American actress has been one hardest hit celebrity, with more than 50 nude snaps of her surfacing.

According to TMZ, one featured a message believed to be for her fiance Johnny Depp.

Kim Kardashian, Vanessa Hudgens faced the leak scandal.

Racy photos resembling the stars were posted on Saturday morning.

They were immediately removed by Reddit and the image-sharing site 4chan as part of its new copyright infringement policy.

Gabrielle Union, Mary-Kate Olsen, Avril Lavigne, Hayden Panettiere, Lake Bell, Leelee Sobieski and former Disney stars Aly and AJ Michalka are a few of the other potential victims.

A video of Aubrey Plaza and additional images of Jennifer Lawrence and "Big Bang Theory" star Kaley Cuoco were also allegedly released on Saturday.

This comes less than one month after revealing images of a crop of other A-listers, including Lawrence, Kate Upton and Kirsten Dunst, were stolen from their personal Apple accounts and posted online.

As many as 100 stars were targeted in the massive celebrity nude photo leak.

The incident is currently under FBI investigation. Apple also investigated the leak, determining that the iCloud accounts of the celebrities were compromised via a "very targeted attack," but neither iCloud nor Find My iPhone were breached.
