An international law enforcement operation, led by the FBI and coordinated by Europol, has successfully seized multiple cybercrime-related websites, including Cracked, Nulled, StarkRDP, Sellix, and MySellix. These platforms facilitated various illegal activities, such as the distribution of stolen login credentials, pirated software, video game cheats, and stolen credit card information. The operation, referred to as “Operation Talent,” involved collaboration among multiple agencies to dismantle these hubs of cybercriminal activity. A seizure notice posted on the affected websites indicated that authorities are actively collecting information on users and victims associated with these platforms. Confirmation of the seizures was also observed on a Cracked Telegram channel, where members expressed uncertainty and labeled it a “sad day” for their community. Europol has confirmed the ongoing operation and plans to release more details within the next 24 hours. This action underscores the global commitment to combating cybercrime and disrupting illicit online networks.
