The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is investigating the criminal hacking forums known as BreachForums and Raidforums.

From June 2023 until May 2024, BreachForums (hosted at breachforums.st/.cx/.is/.vc and run by ShinyHunters) was operating as a clear-net marketplace for cybercriminals to buy, sell, and trade contraband, including stolen access devices, means of identification, hacking tools, breached databases, and other illegal services.

Previously, a separate version of BreachForums (hosted at breached.vc/.to/.co and run by pompompurin) operated a similar hacking forum from March 2022 until March 2023. Raidforums (hosted at raidforums.com and run by Omnipotent) was the predecessor hacking forum to both version of BreachForums and ran from early 2015 until February 2022.

Below is a questionnaire for victims or individuals that have information to assist in any of the investigations against BreachForums v2, BreachForums v1, or Raidforums. Please complete all fields of the questionnaire to the best of your ability and the FBI will be in contact with you as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please contact us at breachforums@fbi.gov or t.me/fbi_breachforums.
 
Legit question, how does the FBI have jurisdiction over hackers on the internet in the whole DoJ cabal?
The FBI can work in any country not just the United States. They were all over Iraq and Afghanistan during the War on Terror. They are also the arm of the U.S. government that is seizing Russian and Ukrainian sanctioned assets all over the world like mansions, yachts, and bank accounts. So the FBI seizing servers in any country is a normal activity for them. Since 9/11 they basically have jurisdiction anywhere.
 
pfft, like the alphabet agencies aren't just making up the rules as they need them.

Worse case scenario they go to some Fed judge to get a warrant after the fact. By then it's too late your ass is in jail for the next 5 years while your case goes through the system.

I really prefer the KGB, at least they were honest in their own way. The never pretended they were the good guys fighting the good fight and all this shit they did was for your own good.

Nah they just rolled up at 3am and shot you in the head.
 
Lol, Feds be trollin'. I'm half convinced the open secret sites like Breach and Raid were already FBI honey pots but just needed some legitimate users for an easy PR win.
 
I thought federal takedown notices were black and white and official looking, not something that looks like a billboard from Star Citizen.

Unless you are trying to provide me with targets.
And what are you gonna do, send talcum powder to Kantonspolizei Zürich for being mentioned in the takedown notice of your favorite illegal hacking operation?
