The FBI has seized the BreachForums website, a clear‑net marketplace run by criminals for trading stolen access, breached databases, and other illicit services; the seizure notice says law enforcement obtained backend data that could include email addresses, IPs, and private messages. The FBI requests victims and others to contact them (via email, Telegram, TOX, and an IC3 subdomain) to aid investigations; the report notes BreachForums (June 2023–May 2024) was run by “ShinyHunters,” with previous versions run by “pompompurin” and predecessor Raidforums run by “Omnipotent.”
