Hacker breached four main underground cybercrime forums, publicly disclosed the stolen data and in some cases offered it for sale.
The threat actors hacked the Verified forum in January, Crdclub in February, and Exploit and Maza in March.
“Since the beginning of the year, Intel 471 has detected four well-known cybercriminal forums dealing with a breach, including two since the beginning of March,” states the post disclosed by Intel 471.
The administrator of the cybercrime from Crdclub disclosed a cyberattack in February that resulted in the hack of the administrator’s account.
“By doing so, the actor behind the attack was able to attract forum customers into using a money transfer service that was allegedly vouched for by the forum’s admins. That was a lie and resulted in an unknown amount of money being deflected from the forum.” reported threat intelligence firm Intel 471.
“The forum’s admins promised to reimburse those who were defrauded. No other information looked to be compromised in the attack.”
The cybercrime forums Exploit, and Maza was hacked in March, where hackers gained secure (SSH) access to a proxy server destined for denial-of-service (DDoS) protection and attempted to toss out network traffic.
The members of the Maza cybercrime forum we're redirected to a breach notification page upon signing in.
The leaked Maza data include user id, email, username, password (hashed and obfuscated), Crt_filename, Crt_pass, Icq (when available), Yahoo (when available), Aim (when available), Msn (when available), Skype (when available).
