U.S. authorities, in coordination with 13 other nations, have dismantled LeakBase—one of the largest cybercrime forums operating on the open web. The platform, with over 142,000 members, facilitated the trade of stolen data, including credit card details, bank credentials, and corporate records.

Europol-led operations on March 3-4 resulted in the seizure of LeakBase's domains and database. The forum's English-language infrastructure hosted archives tied to high-profile breaches, enabling attacks through commoditized access to sensitive information.
