Hacker Wants $50K From Hacker Forum or He’ll Share Stolen Database With the Feds

Anonymous user appears to have breached Basetools.ws, an underground hacking forum that allows users to trade stolen credit card information, profile data, and spamming tools. The hacker uploaded samples of the site’s database and a ransom demand for $50,000. He also dumped tools that users were selling on the site, such as login credentials for shells, backdoors, and spambots hosted on hacked sites. This means that credentials for thousands of servers are now in easy reach to anyone who knows where to look for it.
