ShinyHunters alleges that French BL2C, with DOJ/FBI cooperation, covertly seized BreachForums—compromising the forum's PGP key and admin accounts—and accessed plaintext private messages, unhashed passwords, IP addresses, emails and metadata; the attackers claim the forum's source code was altered to log user activity and operate as a law-enforcement honeypot, creating broad deanonymization and legal exposure risks for users.
