Anonymous' Alleged Russia Central Bank Hack To Release Thousands of Hacked Files!

Anonymous, one of the most well-known hacking groups, claims that it was able to breach Russia's Central Bank. The cybercriminal agency said that it would release thousands of hacked RCB files in the next 48 hours.

"The #Anonymous collective has hacked the Central Bank of Russia. More than 35.000 files will be released within 48 hours with secret agreements. #OpRussia," said the Anonymous hacking group via its official Twitter post.

The announcement made by the hacking group was able to generate more than 38,000 likes, 900 quote tweets, and 8,600 retweets.

Anonymous' Alleged Russia Central Bank Hack

According to the Independent UK's latest report, the Anonymous hacking group said that it was able to acquire 35,000 files of Russia's Central Bank.

The cybercriminals added that these breached documents contain secret agreements made by RCB. As of the moment, RCB hasn't confirmed yet if the notorious hacking group somehow breaches their systems.

Ever since the conflict between Russia and Ukraine began, Anonymous claims that it had been attacking multiple Russian organizations.

The online attackers' targets include Russian television stations, a nuclear energy company, as well as some websites.

Although the Anonymous hacking group is one of the most feared cybercriminal unions, its claim regarding the massive RCB hack will still remain speculation until Russia confirms it.

Nestle Denies Anonymous Breach

Anonymous seems to be active for the past few days. The hacking group recently claimed that it was also able to acquire sensitive data from Nestle.

However, Gizmodo reported that the multinational food company denied the massive data breach. Instead, a spokesperson of the company said that Nestle is the one that actually leaked its own database.

He added that it was just a mistake that the food company made this 2022.

Aside from Anonymous, other hacking groups are also making their own moves.

On Mar. 22, a possible Okta data breach was being investigated after hacking group LAPSUS$ posted screenshots of the alleged online attack.

Meanwhile, a password-stealing malware previously put Android users at risk after appearing on Google Play Store.
