๐ฐ The #FBI has seized the notorious #BreachForums hacking forum that leaked and sold stolen corporate data to other cybercriminals. ๐
๐ฐ The seizure occurred on Wednesday morning, soon after the site was used last week to leak data stolen from a #Europol law enforcement portal. ๐
The website is now displaying a message stating that the FBI has taken control over it and the backend data, indicating that law enforcement seized both the site's servers and domains.
"This website has been taken down by the FBI and DOJ with assistance from international partners," reads the seizure message.
"We are reviewing this site's backend data. If you have information to report about cyber criminal activity on BreachForums, please contact us," continues the seizure banner.
The seizure message also shows the two forum profile pictures of the site's administrators, Baphomet and ShinyHunters, overlaid with prison bars.
If law enforcement has gained access to the hacking forum's backend data, as they claim, they would have email addresses, IP addresses, and private messages that could expose members and be used in law enforcement investigations.
The FBI has also seized the site's Telegram channel and other channels owned by Baphomet, with law enforcement sending messages stating it is under their control.
Some of the messages posted to the seized Telegram channels by law enforcement came directly from Baphomet's account, likely indicating that the threat actor was arrested and his devices are now in the hands of law enforcement.
