The FBI has seized the domains for the infamous Cracked.io and Nulled.to hacking forums, which are known for their focus on cybercrime, password theft, cracking, and credential stuffing attacks.

While some of their members also engaged in ethical hacking discussions, the sites were widely regarded as a hub for cybercriminal activity.

They also hosted content related to software cracks, hacking tools like "configs" used by credential stuffing attack tools (e.g., OpenBullet and SilverBullet), and other illicit activities, including a "combo lists" marketplace with stolen credentials or databases.

When trying to open the sites, web browsers display "Error 1000. DNS points to prohibited IP" and Error 1016. Origin DNS error" messages.

Today, the FBI seized the forums' domains and changed their name servers to ns1.fbi.seized.gov and ns2.fbi.seized.gov from their previous Cloudflare name servers.
