In this month’s episode, we look into a parallel conflict taking place in the Russian language darknet. Pro-Russian and pro-Ukrainian Russian-speaking cybercriminals are pitting themselves against each other with rival forums and marketplaces, seeking to fill the void left by the closure of Hydra Marketplace.

What’s unique about this situation is that prior to the war in Ukraine, there was an element of comradery in the Russian-speaking darknet. The result was the dominance and sophistication of Russian-speaking cybercrime circles - from where the majority of global fraud originated. This credo, built up over the years, is now fractured.

Listen to Nethone’s Intelligence Specialist Michał Barbaś to learn what will be the outcome of this parallel conflict and how it will affect global fraud issues over the next few years!

Welcome to Nethone's Darknet Summary! In this month’s episode, we’ll take a look at the recent closure of 911 proxy - the last of the original big three proxy sites popular amongst cybercriminals due to its huge stockpile of clean IP addresses. The late-July closure of 911[.]re follows in the footsteps of VIP 72 which went down in 2021 and LuxSocks, which disappeared in January of this year.

Welcome to Nethone's Darknet Summary! In this month’s episode, we look back at 2021 - the year when payment card fraud dominated the darkweb, aided by the rise in eCommerce during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The growth of online shopping has allowed fraudsters to use tactics that take advantage of vulnerabilities in eCommerce platforms, allowing them to skim consumer credit card details, which are then sold online.

We will pay particular focus to American cybercrime agency Gemini Advisory’s newly released annual report. In it, their analysts highlight that the levels of Card Present records offered for sale on the dark web have continued to decline, whereas the availability of Card Not Present records continues to grow.
