Un faux portail FPR pour piéger des pirates
Medium
Summary
A hacker created a convincing fake police portal to trick other hackers into revealing their identities and providing information. The portal mimicked a French police database, complete with authentication and search functionalities, designed to build trust and encourage users to submit their personal details. The goal was to gather intelligence on a network of hackers, potentially linking pseudonyms to real identities and mapping relationships within the group. This tactic leverages social engineering and a fabricated sense of authority to extract valuable information.
