Carder forum drops offline after hack attack
White hat cavalry shoot up black hat site
Agentless Backup is Not a Myth
A Pakistan-based carder site has dropped off the net, after white hat hackers broke into the forum and posted details of the hack on a full disclosure mailing list.
Pakbugs.com provided a forum for ne'er do wells to discuss hacking tactics and trade malware, bank logins details and stolen credit card credentials. However this activity was interrupted after login details for the forum and email addresses were posted online following a break-in.
A previously unknown group called War Against Cyber Crime claimed credit for the hack. The group expressed the hope that law enforcement agents will begin an investigation against individuals named on the leaked list.
Meanwhile, the Pakbugs.com site remains unavailable. Net security firm F-Secure, which was among the first to record the takedown hack, said it reckons the forum is unlikely to reappear.
More details of the hack, including screenshots, can be found in a blog entry by F-Secure here. ®

Just another pitiful set of attention seeking wannabe securetards.
AOL
Is it just me, or does the fact that there are two AOL addresses in that list spread doubt about the 1337 h4x 5k1LLs of these guys? Not a single address there is disposable...
Clowns, the lot of them.

The name "War Against Cyber Crime" sounds like something the US government would come up with. We do keep hearing how US gov agencies will be engaging in 'proactive cyber warfare".
Only governments use the word 'cyber' as well.
