The now-defunct WeLeakInfo data breach site has suffered its own data breach after a threat actor leaked the service's payment information and customer info.
Last Thursday, a threat actor released an archive of payment processing data used by WeLeakInfo when processing payments through Stripe.
The data was published on a popular hacking forum known as RaidForums, where other threat actors could download WeLeakInfo data by paying eight credits, a form of currency used on the forum, which is equal to about $2.54.
The poster states they gained access to the WeLeakInfo payment processing data after the FBI allowed the 'wli.
Last weekend, cybersecurity intelligence firm Cyble shared samples of the stolen data with BleepingComputer and said there are approximately 10,000 unique customers listed in the data leak.
The leaked data includes screenshots from the Stripe WeLeakInfo account and spreadsheets containing invoices, successful payments, customer lists, and more.
