  • The U.S. government has taken down 145 domains and crypto funds associated with the illicit BidenCash marketplace.
  • The operation is part of the global crackdown on cybercrime, following the success of Operation RapTor.

In a significant development in the fight against crypto-enabled cybercrime, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has closed down 145 websites linked to the BidenCash marketplace.

The BidenCash platform had been operational since March 2022, enabling users to trade compromised financial information using cryptocurrencies.

Despite its name, BidenCash was not politically affiliated and instead served as a marketplace for criminal activities.

BidenCash Shutdown

In a coordinated effort, the U.S. Department of Justice dismantled BidenCash, a dark web marketplace involved in trafficking stolen financial data.

On June 4th, officials announced the seizure of approximately 145 dark net and traditional internet domains, along with cryptocurrency funds associated with BidenCash.

“The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia announced today the seizure of approximately 145 dark net and traditional internet domains, and cryptocurrency funds associated with the BidenCash marketplace.”

BidenCash, which commenced operations in March 2022, allowed users to buy stolen credit card data and personal information using cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Tether.

The DOJ confirmed that the operators of BidenCash facilitated the trade of stolen credit cards and personal data on the platform.

Seizure Across Dark Web and Clear Net

Apart from dark websites, clear-net domains were also targeted in the operation, with all seized URLs displaying a banner indicating U.S. authorities’ intervention.

The message showcased logos of global partners, highlighting international collaboration in the crackdown.

The operation involved the US Secret Service, FBI, Dutch National High Tech Crime Unit, and cyber threat intelligence firms like Searchlight Cyber and the Shadow Server Foundation.

Crackdown on Crypto Criminal Activities

While the exact amount of seized crypto remains undisclosed, the DOJ confirmed the confiscation of digital currencies associated with BidenCash transactions through court-approved forfeiture.

U.S. Attorney Jessica D. Aber emphasized that cyber criminals are not anonymous, even on the dark web, reinforcing law enforcement’s efforts to combat illegal crypto usage.

“Cyber criminals should know that even on the dark web, they are not anonymous.”

This action follows Operation RapTor, which resulted in 270 arrests and $200 million in global seizures, signaling a heightened crackdown on illicit crypto activities.

Warning to Cyber Criminals

The shutdown of BidenCash demonstrates the increasing capability of governments to penetrate anonymity software used in crypto crimes.

With another cybercrime hub taken down, the message is clear: crypto anonymity does not shield individuals from law enforcement actions.
