US Marshals say data posted by ransomware gang not from ‘new or undisclosed incident’

Posted on August 27, 2024 by Dissent

Jonathan Greig reports:

The U.S. Marshals Service said it has looked into recent data theft claims made by a prominent ransomware gang and determined none of the data is from a new incident.

Brady McCarron, a spokesperson for the Marshals Service, told Recorded Future News that the law enforcement agency is aware of the allegations and examined them after the Hunters International ransomware group posted 386 GB of data on Monday that appears to include files on gangs, documents from the FBI, specific case information, operational data and more.

“[USMS] has evaluated the materials posted by individuals on the dark web, which do not appear to derive from any new or undisclosed incident,” he said

The data is identical to information stolen during a ransomware attack on the Marshals Service last year, according to sources who have examined the leaks.
