Good morning,

People are not seeding the vx-underground torrents. You nerds asked for torrents, so you better seed.

Is it enough?

June 14th a 22-year-old British man was arrested in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.

Per the official report: the currently unidentified male is alleged to be behind a series of large-enterprise 'hacks' which resulted in the theft of corporate information and allowing an unidentified group to access multi-million-dollar funds.

No information is provided on whether or not this person is involved in ransomware, extortion, information stealers, sim swapping, crypto-draining, etc. The media reports only state he is a 'hacker' who 'stole information' which allowed him and his unidentified group access to access 'funds' ...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The suspect was arrested in a joint effort between the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Spanish Police. It was stated he was arrested as he was making an effort to flee Spain to Italy.

A Judge in Los Angeles, California issued a warrant for his arrest.

Media outlets in Spain captured some footage of the arrest. The individuals face is censored. However, and most importantly, at the 0:20 mark a child decides to do a Naruto run in the midst of an international law enforcement take down for the memes.

He also appears to be wearing a Minecraft blanket. 11/10 the kid is a memester.

Previously on Dragon Ball Z, the Spanish media reported a 'hacker' was arrested via the Spanish Police working in conjunction with the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation.

The individual arrested as a 22-year-old male from the United Kingdom. He was not immediately identified to the media by law enforcement.

Today we received confirmation on this individuals identity and alleged crimes. For the safety and privacy of multiple parties involved (including the accused) we cannot divulge too much information.

The individual arrested operated under the alias 'Tyler'. He is a sim swapper and is allegedly involved with the infamous Scattered Spider group. Most notably he is believed to be a key component of the MGM ransomware attack, and is believed to be associated with several other high profile ransomware attacks performed by Scattered Spider.

Good morning,

It's Sunday, the day of rest. We hope all of you had a good week and a good weekend. We'll see all of you Monday morning.

tl;dr we're sorry your package was lost, but that's not our fault. Sometimes shipping sucks ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hello, how are you?

We're currently experimenting with a new harddrive distribution technique.

We currently distribute data in the form of an external harddrive. Moving forward we will deliver it in a plain 'ol SATA drive, and we'll also toss in a SATA to USB converter for people who don't have a drive bay, or want to open their box.

It'll be much faster and easier for us (and you).
