Cybercrime headlines today include the sentencing of a Latvian national involved with Karakurt and other ransomware gangs, who was sentenced to 102 months in prison. Reading the court filings on the case, the FBI's affidavit rang a bell at one point.
In October 2023, I was contacted by someone claiming to be a cybersecurity researcher who had found one of Karakurt and Akira's storage servers. They told me that they were contacting the gangs' victims and trying to get paid for finding the data and research. It didn't sound "whitehat" to me, and when "anonymoux" said he tried to get a reward from Rewards for Justice but had gotten no reply and wanted to get in touch with the FBI, I agreed to help them make contact with the FBI. While many TAs avoid law enforcement, DataBreaches has known several who want to be in touch with the FBI. While some want to try to make deals because they think they are about to be arrested, others just think they will outsmart the FBI. "Anonymoux" seemed to be in that latter group.
I later wrote about my interactions with "anonymoux" in January 2024: https://databreaches.net/2024/01/10/follow-on-extortion-campaign-confirmation-of-some-findings-by-arctic-wolf/
Now that court filings for Deniss Zolotarjovs (Денисс Золотарёвс), aka "Sforza_cesarini," have been unsealed, you can read the FBI agent's affidavit in support of the complaint and arrest, in which he describes how he and Zolotarjovs chatted, and how he eventually concluded that "anonymoux" was Zolotarjovs:

Latvian national Deniss Zolotarjovs, alleged member of #Karakurt, made his first appearance in federal court in Ohio on Tuesday.
The affidavit by FBI Special Agent Connor Lentz discreetly mentioned DataBreaches' support in the case. It was one of those times when a TA tried to play me but it didn't quite work out well for them.

And especially big support to #Karakurt who had to face an intensified torrent of hate online over the last few days just because she's a proud, kickass lesbian.
