A rival hacking forum has yet again hacked OGUsers - the second time in a year - and yet again doxxed its database for one and all to grab, fast on the heels of the attack.

OGUsers is a forum devoted to trading stolen Instagram, Twitter and other accounts, with a special place in its dark heart for hackers who like to trade SIM swappers' stolen phone numbers and Bitcoin accounts.

Within a few hours, a rival forum dumped OGUsers' database of about 200,000 user records, Under the Breach reported early Friday morning.

As Motherboard has reported, OGUsers - called OGU by its members - is a forum popular among hackers who specialize in hijacking people's accounts, particularly through SIM swapping.

Like we said when we reported about hackers hacking hackers - if hackers can be hacked, then so can you, if you aren't careful.
