Rumors say that the same hackers who hacked „1337 Crew“ board last year did this job. The „1337 Crew“ was busted by the German police last November.
Regarding the "Carders.cc" platform: The hackers dumped a database, including email and ip addresses. The following message accompanied the publication:
The „Carders“ Crew switched off the server and released a statement themselves about what happened. They said that they will be back in some days with a better and more secure system. Read an extract below:
After the takedown of the "1337 Crew", "Carders.cc" had increased its popularity. A dumped database will damage their reputation in the short run. Maybe it is possible to track down some users, if they were stupid enough not to use an anonimization proxy. But it can be doubted, that this will have a lasting effect on the carding business.
