Ok - die schreiben selbst von sich, dass sie nur Geld machen und nicht die Welt verbessern wollen.
"Q: How? You stated that your intent was to sell it to the highest bidder. That just means that it will get buried.
A: We're financially motivated. We're not motivated by saving the planet."
Q: if you DO get paid then we can assume the world's not save because you'd not release them right?
A: That's correct. We're not here to save the world. We're here to get paid internet money. We're not motivated by ego or charity, only money.
Ob was dran ist oder nicht - schwer zu sagen. Auf jeden Fall für mich irgendwie mit zu viel negativen Energien behaftet…

"The Dark Overlord – Systematic cyber-enabled extortion
A cyber crime group called ‘The Dark Overlord’ has claimed responsibility for conducting cyber-enabled extortion campaigns in recent weeks. Victims include a London-based plastic surgery clinic and a Hollywood production studio, both of which are believed to have a number of high-profile clients. The group has a history of hacking organisations to obtain sensitive information before demanding money in exchange for not leaking it into the public domain. They leak snippets of data to the media to encourage them to report on their activity. This is aimed at “proving” that a breach has taken place, and increases the pressure on the victim to pay the ransom. ‘The Dark Overlord’ has been responsible for indiscriminately targeting health institutions, schools and media production companies over the last year.
Any organisation that deals with sensitive personal information (e.g. medical institutions, law firms) is at a higher risk of being targeted, and owes a particular duty of care to its clients because of the risk of severe emotional distress if client data is made public. Whilst evidence of the stolen data is often provided, the volume and sensitivity of the data may be exaggerated to maximise impact. This may inspire other cyber extortionists to adopt a similar methodology, especially as new opportunities present themselves due to an increasing amount of sensitive data being stored online. Any data breach and the associated media exposure may cause significant reputational damage and loss of business."
