A hacker forum was just hacked and some data of about 300,000 wannabe criminals were leaked. Hashtag sadface, right?
BreachForums, an infamous forum used by hackers to distribute leaked and stolen data, was... hacked, and their data was leaked. According to Bleeping Computer, the forum database was compromised and data of over 300,000 accounts was leaked.
The data contained usernames, IP addresses and some other things. Of course, those of the users who actually were hackers, were prepared for such danger and their IPs were just loopback addresses, which will not allow tracing them. But some of them were not that smart, and over 70,000 of those account will allow the users to be tracked down.
According to the hackers, who leaked the data, the whole forum was just a honeypot operation, used by the law enforcement to lure wannabe criminals, but it is hard to be certain about it. Nevertheless, it will be hard to find anyone else to shed a tear about the whole thing.
