A group of hackers from the group called the "Com" was responsible for the leak.
The hack, first reported by 404 Media, doxed the names and personal information of thousands of government officials. A user in the Scattered LAPSUS$ Hunters Telegram chat said, "I want my MONEY MEXICO," on Thursday. The Telegram chat is one of the groups linked to the Com. This comes as cartels have offered thousands of dollars for information that doxes ICE agents as well as other officers.
There were multiple spreadsheets of information posted in the Telegram channel. One of which contained the alleged personal information of 680 DHS officials, another sheet listed 170 FBI email addresses and who owned them, a third spreadsheet had personal information for 190 DOJ officials, per the report.
The outlet was able to corroborate some of the information that was leaked in the hack. Much of the information was related to government officials, with names, agencies, addresses, and phone numbers matching. DHS has said that ICE agents are facing a wave of doxing as well as a 1,000 percent increase in assaults.
Earlier this week, Facebook removed a group on its social media platform that was dedicated to doxing the location of ICE agents in Chicago. ICE has been facing heavy hostility in Portland as well as Chicago, as the Trump administration has been cracking down on illegal immigration as well as crime in Democrat-run cities.
