If you have information to report about cyber criminal activity on BreachForums, please contact us,\u201d the seizure notice states.<\/p>\n<p>Contact information on the seized site includes the email address <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmagazine.com\/cdn-cgi\/l\/email-protection#a6c4d4c3c7c5cec0c9d4d3cbd5e6c0c4cf88c1c9d0\"><span class=\"__cf_email__\" data-cfemail=\"bcdeced9dddfd4dad3cec9d1cffcdaded592dbd3ca\">[email&nbsp;protected]<\/span><\/a>, the Telegram contact fbi_breachforums, the website <a href=\"https:\/\/breachforums.ic3.gov\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/breachforums.ic3.gov\/\">breachforums.ic3.gov<\/a> and a QR code to communicate through Tox.<\/p>\n<p>The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) BreachForums page includes a contact form for breach victims or those with information about BreachForums and its predecessor Raidforums to submit information to authorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor individuals and companies whose information had previously been compromised and appeared on the site, this development offers an opportunity to address the specific exposures,\u201d Omri Weinberg, co-founder and Cro at SaaS security firm DoControl, told SC Media. \u201cHowever, it\u2019s crucial to remember that the underlying data may still be circulating in other channels, or even reappear on new iterations of the BreachForums marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The FBI seizure notice also displays the online avatars of BreachForums administrators ShinyHunters and Baphomet portrayed behind bars. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleepingcomputer.com\/news\/security\/fbi-seize-breachforums-hacking-forum-used-to-leak-stolen-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">screenshot published by BleepingComputer<\/a> shows that the forum\u2019s Telegram channel and Baphomet\u2019s Telegram account are also in the FBI\u2019s control.<\/p>\n<h2>Second BreachForums takedown in two years<\/h2>\n<p>Wednesday marks the second time the BreachForums clearnet site was seized by the FBI. Authorities took control of the group\u2019s previous domain in June 2023, three months after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmagazine.com\/brief\/guilty-plea-entered-by-breachforums-owner-for-hacking-charges\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the arrest of original BreachForums founder Conor Brian Fitzpatrick<\/a>, who went by Pompompurin online.<\/p>\n<p>The forum was briefly revived by Baphomet shortly after Fitzpatrick\u2019s arrest, but the new administrator soon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmagazine.com\/brief\/breachforums-dismantled-following-admin-arrest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">shut the site down<\/a> due to fears of compromise by authorities. Baphomet subsequently established the new site with the ShinyHunters group in June 2023.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe FBI\u2019s successful seizure of BreachForums marks a significant achievement in the ongoing battle against cybercrime, representing just one strike in a persistent game of whack-a-mole,\u201d Weinberg said. \u201cThe pattern of these sites reappearing under new domains is a stark reminder of the ongoing cat-and-mouse game between law enforcement and criminals. This situation underscores the necessity for international cooperation and robust cybersecurity strategies to combat these adaptive and persistent threats effectively.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fitzpatrick ultimately entered a guilty plea for charges related to hacking and possession of child sexual abuse material in June 2023, and <a href=\"https:\/\/thehackernews.com\/2024\/01\/breachforums-founder-sentenced-to-20.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">was sentenced<\/a> to time served plus 20 years of post-release supervision in January 2024.<\/p>\n<p>The FBI <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmagazine.com\/brief\/raidforums-hacking-site-taken-down\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">previously seized RaidForums<\/a>, widely seen as a predecessor to BreachForums, in 2022. RaidForums\u2019s alleged founder Diogo Santos Coelho was arrested in the UK and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/law\/2024\/mar\/15\/diogo-santos-coelho-pleads-uk-block-us-extradition-cybercrime-raidforums\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">was fighting extradition to the U.S.<\/a> as of March 2024.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is highly likely that the forum will eventually reappear under the same or different name. As far as the previously stolen data leaked on the site, I expect that multiple local copies of it have been downloaded by actors participating in the forums, so there\u2019s continued exposure,\u201d warned Zendata CEO Narayana Pappu, in an email to SC Media. \u201cMost people participating in these forums are fairly sophisticated and would have protected their identities. However, some folks could be tracked based on their IP addresses, Telegram account information, email addresses, etc.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Several major data breaches linked to BreachForums<\/h2>\n<p>BreachForums was used by various threat actors to buy, sell, trade and publish stolen data as well as market hacking tools and other illegal services.<\/p>\n<p>Data from several high-profile breaches has been leaked on the forums; for example, one threat actor claimed to have access to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmagazine.com\/news\/dell-says-names-addresses-leaked-after-hacker-claims-access-to-49m-records\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">49 million records on Dell customers<\/a> on April 28, after which Dell confirmed that names and addresses were stolen.<\/p>\n<p>Another recent high-profile breach, involving the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmagazine.com\/news\/23andme-raw-genetic-data-stolen-in-months-long-cyberattack\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">theft of data from 6.9 million 23andMe customers<\/a>, has also been linked to BreachForums.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is interesting to know that it appears that the FBI had access to the forum and was monitoring communications and collecting information about members. While these types of actions will not stop bad actors from buying and organizations for a period of time. Anytime we can reduce the number of attacks or prevent information from being bought and sold is certainly welcome,\u201d Erich Kron, security awareness advocate at KnowBe4, told SC Media.<\/p>\n<p>SC Media submitted an inquiry to the DOJ asking how the BreachForums was infiltrated and whether any administrators or users have been arrested, and did not receive a response.<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE <a
