华盛顿9月22日路透电——以数字敲诈闻名的“ShinyHunters”组织周二称,他们已入侵美国联邦调查局(FBI),并窃取了数量庞大的现任及前任该局雇员数据。

该局周二未回应记者多次置评请求。

ShinyHunters在其暗网网站发布的声明中,以及在与路透社的在线聊天中表示,他们袭击FBI是为了报复该局2026年5月的一则公告,该公告详细披露了ShinyHunters的作案手法,并建议受害者不要支付赎金。该组织称,他们窃取了“几乎所有联邦调查局探员,以及向FBI申请过职位的个人的数据”。

作为证据,该组织提供了据称是被篡改的FBI求职网站截图,以及他们所称的一小部分窃取到的数据样本。

路透社无法核实该截图的真实性,但该求职网站近期似乎确实出现过宕机。周二该网站发布一则消息称,其本身以及FBI“特别探员申请门户”均“目前无法访问”。

路透社通过将部分据称被盗的FBI人事信息的姓名、邮政地址细节以及社会安全号码与信用局记录,以及暗网情报公司District 4 Labs保存的此前遭泄露的数据进行比对,部分验证了这些信息的真实性。

路透社至少在9起案例中发现,相关细节似乎匹配。但该新闻机构无法确认这些数据的来源,也无法证实这些数据是否如黑客所称,是从FBI内部系统窃取的。记者试图联系样本数据中信息涉及的人员,但均未成功。

ShinyHunters是全球最臭名昭著、最爱高调炫耀的黑客组织之一。其近期的入侵行为包括据称从《侠盗猎车手》开发商电子游戏公司Rockstar Games窃取了数百万条商业记录,以及今年5月针对教育工具Canvas的入侵事件,该事件导致美国多所学校大范围停课。本月早些时候,人工智能公司Anthropic称,其发现与ShinyHunters有关联的黑客试图使用该公司的工具。

上周日,该组织告诉路透社,他们已向另一个臭名昭著的网络犯罪集团cl0p宣战,这是一起罕见的公开互撕事件。

WASHINGTON, Sept 22 (Reuters) – The digital extortion group known as “ShinyHunters” said ​on Tuesday that it had breached the Federal Bureau of Investigation and stolen ‌data on a huge number of current and former FBI employees.

The bureau did not respond to repeated messages seeking comment on Tuesday.

The Misinformation Monitor newsletter rounds up international misinformation narratives, with a “Real or Fake?” quiz in every edition. Sign up here.

In a statement posted to its dark-web site and during an online chat with Reuters, ShinyHunters ​said it had targeted the FBI in response to a May 2026 agency announcement ​that detailed ShinyHunters’ methods and advised targets not to pay. It said ⁠it had stolen data “on almost ALL FBI Agents, and individuals who filed an application with ​the FBI for a job.”

As proof, the group offered what it said was a screenshot of ​a vandalized FBI job site and what it described as a small sample of its stolen data.

Reuters could not verify the authenticity of the screenshot, but the job site did appear to have experienced recent disruption. A ​message posted to the site on Tuesday said that both it and the FBI “Special Agent ​Applicant Portal” were “currently unavailable.”

Reuters was able to partially verify the authenticity of some of the allegedly stolen FBI ‌personnel information ⁠by running the names, postal address details, and Social Security numbers against credit bureau records and previously breached data preserved by the dark-web intelligence firm District 4 Labs.

In at least nine cases, Reuters found that the details appeared to match. However, the news agency could not establish ​where the data came ​from, or whether it ⁠had been stolen from the FBI’s internal systems as the hackers claimed. Attempts to reach the people whose details were in the sample data ​were unsuccessful.

ShinyHunters is one of the world’s most notorious and attention-seeking ​hacking crews. Its ⁠recent break-ins include the purported theft of millions of business records from video game developer Rockstar Games, the maker of “Grand Theft Auto,” and a May intrusion centered on education tool Canvas that caused widespread disruption across ​US ​schools. Earlier this month, AI company Anthropic said it had ​caught ShinyHunters-linked hackers trying to use its tools.

On Sunday, the group told Reuters it had gone to war against another notorious cybercrime ​group, cl0p, in a rare bout of public score-settling.
