Suspected Iran-linked hackers’ Telegram account blocked after ransom demand
|
[IsraelTimes] Black Shadow group’s channels are removed shortly after it sought payment within 48 hours to block data leak from Israeli sites; no immediate comment from the messaging service.
The Black Shadow hacking group, which in recent days has been leaking personal information from Israeli websites, had its Telegram messaging app channels removed on Sunday.
The suspected Iran-linked group’s main Telegram channel for communicating messages, as well as a separate channel for releasing data, were both unavailable on Sunday afternoon, just hours after it had demanded a new ransom payment of $1 million in digital currency to stop the leak.
There was no immediate comment from Telegram on the removal. Previously, controversial channels, such as one belonging to the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
-based Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw, terror group, were temporarily removed likely due to mass reporting on the group by the app’s users. However,
the hip bone's connected to the leg bone...
the messaging service has previously denied that mass reports can remove channels.
The hacking group on Sunday morning said in a statement, released through the now-removed channel, that it was "looking for money" and would not leak further information if the ransom was paid within 48 hours.
The group said the database of the Atraf website, a geo-located dating service and nightlife index, whose app and website are popular in the Israeli LGBT community, contained information on some one million people.
"If we have $1 million in our [digital] wallet in the next 48 hours, we will not leak this information and also we will not sell it to anybody. This is the best thing we can do," the hacking group said, noting that it was in possession of users’ chat content, as well as event ticket and purchasing information.
Later on Sunday, using a backup channel after its main accounts were removed, the hacking group threatened to release data on fifty "famous" Israelis who had been using the online dating service.
"Atraf’s team did not contact us for any deal’s yet so we collected 50 famous israeli that were surfing and we leak their video’s to access the private group," the Black Shadow group published, demanding $500 for access to the data.
The hackers said that they had not been contacted by anybody in the Israeli government or Cyberserve, the Israeli internet hosting company they breached on Friday, taking down several of its sites, including Atraf.
The hackers said the lack of contact showed it was "obvious [the hack] is not an important problem for them."
The names of some Atraf users and their locations have already been posted online, as well as the HIV status that some users had put on their profiles.
