‘FBI pwned me’: Lockbit cybercrime gang faces global takedown with indictments and arrests — 200 crypto wallets frozen, 11000 domains seized, 14000 rouge accounts closed::An international law enforcement operation led by Britain’s National Crime Agency and the FBI has arrested and indicted members of the Lockbit ransomware gang, in an unprecedented police operation that has struck one of the world’s most notorious cybercrime gangs.
14,000 rouge accounts closed? That’s a lot of blush.
Sounds like the foundation of the kind of thrilling story you can’t just makeup.
Can’t make it up!

But crypto is untraceable and can’t be frozen, it’s your money!
Have my crypto bros led me astray? Is it all just a pyramid scheme? 😢
They probably mean accounts on exchanges.
Kinda hard to lock a wallet u don’t have the seed for.
most cryptos are pseudonymous. so, nobody knows who you are until you inevitably tie that pseudonym back to yourself somehow. like if you attempt to cash out, or use that pseudonym (wallet) to pay for something that could be linked to your real identity.
And two Russians were charged. It really took 10 countries working together to find 2 Russian hackers? Jfc
