Dark Web Loses Another Major Market for Stolen Data

Genesis Market, a notorious dark web marketplace that sold stolen passwords, browser cookies, and other login credentials, has been seized by the FBI and its international partners in a massive operation dubbed “Operation Cookie Monster”. The operation involved 17 countries, 45 FBI field offices, 200 raids, and 100 arrests of Genesis users and admins.

Genesis Market was launched in 2017 and operated on the open web as well as the dark web. It offered a user-friendly, English-language interface that attracted cybercriminals from around the world. The market specialized in selling “bots”, which are packages of stolen data that allow hackers to impersonate and access victims’ online accounts. Genesis claimed to have data from over 1.5 million computers and 80 million accounts, including social media, banking, and email accounts.

The seizure of Genesis Market is another blow to the dark web’s cybercrime ecosystem, which has been targeted by law enforcement in recent years. In 2020, Europol shut down DarkMarket, the largest illegal marketplace on the dark web at the time. In 2019, the FBI took down DeepDotWeb, a popular portal that linked to dark web sites. And in 2017, the FBI and Europol closed AlphaBay and Hansa Market, two of the biggest dark web markets then.

Attorney General Merrick B. Garland said that the operation was “unprecedented” and warned cybercriminals that they will be found and brought to justice. “Our seizure of Genesis Market should serve as a warning to cybercriminals who operate or use these criminal marketplaces: the Justice Department and our international partners will shut down your illegal activities, find you, and bring you to justice,” he said.
