The notorious ShinyHunters group has set up a dark web .onion leak site and published alleged partial databases linked to SoundCloud, a global audio streaming platform, Crunchbase, which provides data on private and public companies, and Betterment, an American financial advisory company. The leak spree began Jan. 22, when messages appeared on the group’s Telegram chat account containing links to .onion domains. These links offered the public free access to the alleged data dumps. According to the group, the leaks were carried out after their extortion attempts against the affected companies were denied. In total, the alleged data includes more than 20 million records linked to Betterment containing Personally Identifiable Information, over 2 million alleged records from Crunchbase, and more than 30 million records associated with SoundCloud that are now circulating online.
