BidenCash darknet forum taken down by US, Dutch law enforcement therecord.media/bidencash…

Nearly 145 domains associated with the BidenCash cybercriminal marketplace were taken down on Wednesday in a law enforcement operation led by U.S. and Dutch authorities.

BidenCash, which appropriated the name and image of the former U.S. president, has existed since 2022 and was used primarily as a way to sell stolen credit card numbers, compromised credentials and personal information.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) said that at its peak, the platform had more than 117,000 customers and generated $17 million in revenue from the sale of about 15 million payment card numbers and troves of personal information.

Several domains associated with the site have been replaced with splash images showing the insignias of the DOJ, FBI, U.S. Secret Service and the Dutch High Tech Crime Unit.
