The Dark Overlord Hacker Group Leaks 9/11 Files for Bitcoin

Hacking group The Dark Overlord (who was removed from twitter) had announced that they had files relating to the September 11th terrorist attack that would “burn down the deep state”. The group demanded ransom money in Bitcoin, or else they would release unclosed information about the attacks. The law firm that was hacked allegedly paid the group a fair amount of money, however, after they contacted law enforcement, The Dark Overlord became agitated. The group has now switched from ransom to crowdfunding via the cryptocurrency Bitcoin.

The data breach has become a bigger issue as the first round of information has been leaked to the public. The group has claimed this leak is only the tip of the iceberg and that more files with more information are to come. Each new set of information will be in different sums the group calls “checkpoints”.

So far, the documents are legal documents with the majority being related to insurance. It appears that the documents are information from insurance companies following the attack, with more information to be leaker in future dates. Much information about the leaks, as well as links to the files, are being removed from social media.
