[ONGOING] Famous music leaker/hacking group, leak forum administrators, potentially being doxxed live

HUGE UPDATE: AN INSIDER SOURCE WHO MODERATES LEAKED.CX :marseychtorrr2:HAS CONFIRMED TO ME THAT HE BELIEVES THIS IS LEGITIMATE

Context

MusicMafia was a group of leakers active several years ago that arguably first brought the sale of leaked music in the general public. Through their website, http://musicmafia.to, and later a private domain, they sold tens of thousands of dollars worth of leaked music. This blatant infringement on copyright and computer hacking laws even brought them minor media attention.

Other escapades included hacking the twitters of many notable "artists," such as drake:

The value of these songs/files to collectors that MusicMafia possesses cannot be understated. One track in particular, the most notable track known as "Can U Be" by Kanye West, is valued at upwards of 40k. MusicMafia is, almost certainly, in possession of entire unreleased albums and discographies that could fetch over a hundred thousand dollars to the right people.

Unfortunately, the way that these leaked songs are acquired was/is some combination of social engineering, sim swapping, fraud, and credential stuffing, all of which are illegal and of great interest to the FBI, RIAA, and various other copyright enforcement bureaus :marseyglow:. Recently, a teenage hacker that used the alias "Spirdark" actually got prison time for doing this in the UK https://www.xxlmag.com/hacker-lil-uzi-vert-sentenced-prison/. As such, leakers tend to want to protect their identities, not only from each other due to harassment, but due to the omnipresent threat of legal action. MusicMafia, the group which probably perpetrated some of the largest music leaks in recent memory, would want to protect this, but their identities have been kept secret thus far.

What is known about the "identity" or alias of MusicMafia, publicly at this time, is that they were a group of leakers in 2017, with the website http://musicmafia.to. After this website was shut down by the domain provider, they moved to a private, password protected site to transact business. Sometime around 2018 this website, and the "MusicMafia" alias, were both abandoned. In their place rose a new alias, "PRIVATEFRIEND" aka "PRIVATE" and afterwards "Germans." Whether privatefriend and germans are the entirety of the MusicMafia team, one remnant member, or somewhere in between isn't for me to say. However, what is known is that these aliases stemming from MusicMafia administered the site "http://leakth.is" which shut down in 2021, but until then was the central hub for music leaks and sales. It was also an open secret that, on this website, many sellers were basically PRIVATEFRIEND using different aliases. :marseysockpuppet::marseysockpuppet::marseysockpuppet:

What happened today

You might recall the website http://leaked.cx from my previous post regarding someone who used AI to fake frank ocean tracks and scammed collectors out of 15k (check my profile). Well, after http://leakth.is was shut down in 2021, this website took its place, and is now the new hub for music leaking online.

Today at 7AM, someone by the name "MusicMafia2023" made a post to http://leaked.cx advertising the website http://musicmafia.info, and threatening the MusicMafia team with a doxx unless they responded to their email. Furthermore, this user says he will update the .info website with more and more information every 24 hours. You might recall that MusicMafia stopped being a thing in late 2017-early 2018, this is true, but like I said the user/users behind it are probably still active. The post can be found here (https://leaked.cx/threads/music-mafia-return.119939/). Currently, the user MusicMafia2023 who is threatening this doxx is actually active in the thread.

This was written off as an r-slured prank/someone bullpooping by pretty much everyone, including me. That is because the website pretty much only contained public information that I've relayed to you just now, and didn't have any details besides vague "[redacted]" marks. That is, until around one hour ago, when MusicMafia2023 updated his website with this information:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16851389097991102.webp

If you can't read between the lines here, MusicMafia2023 has allegedly linked a public Spotify account (under a real person's name) to music leaks that MusicMafia sold years after it was added to their playlists. If legitimate, this screenshot alone is pretty much 80% of the way towards a full doxx. :marseyclueless:

What is at stake

I already mentioned how valuable the "vault" of unreleased songs is in MusicMafia's (or the former members of) possession - think 150k, minimum. The stakes of this should also be clear - if they get doxxed, this would immediately be of great interest to every record label and copyright enforcement agency in the western hemisphere.

Is MusicMafia2023 legit? Is he bullpooping? What does he want?

As this saga continues, I will update this thread. But keep in mind, this might be an elaborate troll and I have fallen for the bait like an r-slur.

UPDATE 1: I believe this to be a legitimate doxx and so do many other longtime leakers

UPDATE 2: The doxxer is currently arguing on coded language with a leaker he alleges to be involved with MusicMafia on that public forum page lmao
