In a laughable attempt to show they’re still relevant, the FBI claimed to have “seized” the servers of the Radar/Dispossessor ransomware and extortion gang. But let’s be real, this is just a publicity stunt. Radar’s website still works, and their ransomware is still spreading. It’s clear the FBI is just throwing in the towel, admitting they can’t stop the gang’s reign of terror.
According to the FBI’s pathetic statement, they “seized” the gang’s domains and servers located in the UK and Germany. Oh, great, because that’s exactly what these highly trained law enforcement agents were lacking – a few more countries to coordinate with. Radar/Dispossessor has already victimized at least 43 companies since August 2023, and the FBI is just now deciding to take action? Please.
The FBI claims Radar/Dispossessor uses the same tired tactics as every other ransomware gang: exploiting security flaws, stealing data, encrypting files, and holding it for ransom. But we all know the real reason they’re “shutting down” this gang is because they’re too busy covering up their own incompetence to bother with actual law enforcement.
