FBI has seized hacking forum “BreachForums” popularly known as a Breached hacking forum in the underground market on Wednesday morning for the second time in a year, soon after the site was used last week to leak data stolen from a Europol law enforcement portal.
Now the site displays a message stating that the website and its backend data are now under the control of the FBI. The seizure message reads, “This website has been taken down by the FBI and DOJ with assistance from international partners,”.

“We are reviewing this site’s backend data. If you have information to report about cyber criminal activity on BreachForums, please contact us,” continues the seizure banner.
The FBI has also seized the site’s Telegram channel, with law enforcement sending messages stating it is under their control. “The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is investigating the criminal hacking forums known as BreachForums and Raidforums,” reads a dedicated subdomain on the FBI’s IC3 portal Bleeping computer reported.
According to Threatmon, “Breach, a popular forum, has been seized by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Telegram channel of Baphomet, the administrator of Breach Forum, was also seized by the FBI.”
According to Dark web intelligence, ” BreachForums appears to have been seized by law enforcement agencies, yet there is no official announcement. Both the clearnet domain and the TOR domain currently display the following message.”
“From June 2023 until May 2024, BreachForums (hosted at breachforums.st/.cx/.is/.vc and run by ShinyHunters) was operating as a clearnet marketplace for cybercriminals to buy, sell, and trade contraband, including stolen access devices, means of identification, hacking tools, breached databases, and other illegal services,” the agencies said.
