FBI Seizes Clear Web Domain Linked to Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters
The FBI has seized a clear web domain linked to the Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters hacking group, with the support of French authorities.
BreachForums, a site connected to the group, was taken down, but the hackers' dark web site remains operational.
- The site was initially a popular hacking forum.
- It transitioned to a leak site, extorting Salesforce and dozens of companies compromised by a social engineering campaign.
The farewell message may have been a ruse, or representative of just one portion of the hacking collective.
Despite the seizure of the clear web domain, the group's dark web leak site remains in operation.
