They released links to download the stolen material on Saturday, sending Orange is The New Black fans into a frenzy.

Netflix said that there had been security issues related to a production company used by several major news channels.

It said that the security had been compromised and that "the appropriate law enforcement authorities are involved".

The story appears to confirm that they had nicked the episodes from a third party.

"We were so early when we acquired the copies that post hadn't gotten around to Episodes 11-13," they said, using an industry shorthand term for "post-production."

They warned that more material could be leaked soon, naming ABC, National Geographic and Fox.

At around 2am on Monday morning TheDarkOverLord's Twitter account issued the chilling warning: "It's nearly time to play another round."
