Russian Cybercrime Platform RAMP Forum Seized by FBI

US federal authorities (FBI, DOJ) have seized the clearnet and dark web domains of RAMP (Ramp4u.io) as of January 28, 2026, replacing site content with official seizure notices and updating nameservers to ns1.fbi.seized.gov and ns2.fbi.seized.gov; community posts corroborate the shutdown though arrests remain unconfirmed. The report reviews RAMP’s history and its role as a ransomware-friendly marketplace offering leaked-data auctions, malware rentals, RaaS programs, and initial-access listings, and frames the takedown as part of ongoing law enforcement efforts against Russian-language cybercrime forums.
