A threat actor has leaked data from the now-defunct WeLeakInfo data breach site, including payment and customer information. Last Thursday, the hacker published am archive of payment processing data used by the strip of a hacking forum known as RaidForums.

The WeLeakInfo site offered paid subscriptions to users for searchable access to a database, which stored 12.5 billion user records; records stolen during data breaches. Included in this information were email addresses, names, phone numbers, addresses and even passwords. The site was made for threat actors to be able to conduct phishing campaigns, credential stuffing attacks and even attempt to gain access to corporate networks. the site was effectively shut down in January 2020, following an operation including the FBI, UK NCA, the Netherlands National Police Corps, the German Bundeskriminalamt, and the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
