GhostShell announced its intention to unleash cyberwar with the Russian government

The hacker group GhostShell announced its intention to unleash cyberwar with the Russian government and as a “welcome” published 2.5 million stolen email addresses, passwords and various records of state, law enforcement, financial and other institutions.

The hackers' statement was published on November 2, 2012 on pastebin.com, which they had previously used to report hacking. The stolen information was also posted there.


The GhostShell hackers explained their decision to declare war on the Russian government by saying that Russia "was a state of tyranny for too long" and mired in corruption, and its citizens "forced by politicians to live in isolation from the rest of the world." The country, according to hackers, is experiencing hard times, and many people are starving, while the government is finding resources to finance spies.

“GhostShell currently has access to a larger number of Russian files than the FSB, and we really want to prove it,” the attackers write.

The posted information consists of about 600 files collected by hackers from the sites of Russian state and commercial organizations. Most files contain descriptions of databases hosted on hacked servers. In the case of the government of Yakutia, hackers also posted a list of files located on their server.

Documents published by GhostShell also contain a large number of email addresses, including logins and passwords. In some cases, passwords are encrypted. The files that the hackers attributed to the government information contain only e-mail addresses, and most of them belong to free postal services. Also, in the spread information, one can find archives of messages left by users of the UAZ websites, the Medical.ru online pharmacy, Fotrline real estate rental service, etc. The messages contain email addresses and senders' phones.
