Read notice website that FBI has taken down for stealing millions from internet users

Read notice website that FBI has taken down for stealing millions from internet users In a first-of-its-kind joint cyber investigation, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Atlanta Field Office and Indonesian law enforcement authorities recently dismantled a sophisticated global phishing operation that enabled cybercriminals to steal thousands of victims’ account credentials and attempt more than $20 million in fraud. The operation centered on the W3LL phishing kit, a widely used cybercrime tool that allowed criminals to impersonate legitimate login pages to trick victims into handing over their usernames and passwords. "This wasn’t just phishing—it was a full-service cybercrime platform," said FBI Atlanta Special Agent in Charge Marlo Graham. "We will continue to work with our domestic and foreign law enforcement partners, using all available tools to protect the public." Notice on the seized website The website of the operation, known as W3LL, displayed a notice saying it has been seized by the FBI. The bureau said it worked with Indonesia’s police in the takedown operation, which resulted in the detention of the alleged W3LL developer — identified only as G.L. — and the seizure of “key domains.” Millions of dollars lost across the globe The tool was supported by an online marketplace called "W3LLSTORE." The tool is said to be responsible for causing lot of financial damage to internet users across the world. The FBI estimates that the W3LL store housed more than 25,000 compromised accounts up through 2023 and the tool was used to compromise an additional 17,000 accounts in 2023 and 2024. Criminals stole, or attempted to steal, roughly $20 million in total. The tool was reportedly sold primarily by word of mouth, with a 10% commission for referrals and a third-party vendor program with a 70/30 split on profits.

Nagpur NGO chief accused of sex abuse, religious coercion of several young women NAGPUR: An NGO working for underprivileged children in northwest Nagpur came under scanner after an FIR was registered against its president for alleged sexual abuse of several young women, religious coercion, defamation and cyberstalking. The accused, Riyaz Fazil Qazi, was arrested immediately after the case was filed, said police. The case, coming close on the heels of alleged sexual and religious harassment case at the TCS Nashik unit and sex scandal at Amravati district's Paratwada, triggered a probe from intelligence agencies. The state Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) has kicked off a parallel investigation into the NGO's background, financial trails, and possible links beyond its stated mission of teaching kids from poor families, sources said. The FIR was registered at Mankapur police station on Saturday around 10pm. Police invoked several sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023, including Section 74 (assault or criminal force against a woman with intent to outrage her modesty), Sections 75(2), 78(2), 296 (obscene acts), 302(1) for hurting religious sentiments, and defamation under 356(2), along with Section 66-B of the Information Technology Act for unauthorised use of social media account to stalk women. The main complainant is a 23-year-old woman working as administration and HR head in the NGO since Sept 2023. As per the FIR, on her birthday on July 18, 2024, after office celebrations around 1pm, Qazi allegedly called her to his cabin, hugged her against her will, kissed her forehead and remarked, "I don't want to leave you today".
