1.5 million Facebook accounts offered for sale - FAQ

In their latest “Weekly Threat report”, VeriSign’s iDefense Intelligence Operations Team has profiled the underground market proposition of someone claiming to have 1.5 million compromised Facebook accounts available for sale.

The pricing method is based on the number of contacts per compromised account, presumably with the idea to allow easier spreading of related malicious content across Facebook.

Here’s an excerpt from the report, and a brief FAQ on the underground ad.


  • “On Feb. 10, 2010, (cybercriminal) stated that he or she is selling 1.5 million compromised Facebook accounts, in bulk quantities, belonging to users in various countries. The price per 1,000 accounts varies based upon the number of friends and contacts that each account possesses. For a purchase of compromised accounts containing 10 contacts or fewer, a buyer must pay $25 per 1,000 accounts. A purchase of compromised accounts containing 10 or more contacts requires a buyer to pay $45 per 1,000 accounts. Accounts containing zero contacts are also available for bulk purchasing from (cybercriminal), at the cost of $15 per 1,000 accounts. The prices of these accounts are presumably in USD or the equivalent amount in some form of electronic currency.”

Sometimes, there’s no honor among cybercriminals (Phishers increasingly scamming other phishers), just like there isn’t among “real life” thieves.

From the distribution of backdoored web interfaces to web malware exploitation kits, to the actual “binding” of additional malware to the original release, sophisticated or at least cybercriminals with experience, have realized that there are thousands of potential cybercriminals that could unknowingly start working for them. The process of “cybercriminals attempting to scam novice cybercriminals” demonstrates just how vibrant the ecosystem has become these days.

With a huge percentage of the underground marketplace driven by reputation, this is exactly what this particular seller of Facebook data is missing. Moreover, with quality assurance now an inseparable part of the cybercrime ecosystem, the seller is not just skipping the time frame in between which the accounts were compromised, he is also not mentioning have many of them are actually verified as working.

These, and several other factors make me skeptical on the quality of this underground proposition.

If we consider that the cybercriminal’s claims to be true, how did he manage to obtain 1.5 million Facebook accounts?


The ad is clearly stating that they are accounts with contacts, meaning they’re compromised, and other which have zero contacts, meaning they’ve been automatically generated by outsourcing the CAPTCHA-solving process to international teams specializing in the process.

The compromised accounts could have been obtained through the emerging Cybercrime-as-a-Service (CaaS) market model. For instance, if he has paid $100 for 3GB of raw crimeware data, and the data mining allowed him to compile a list of 1.5m Facebook accounts, based on the current price, he’ll automatically break-even.


Phishing campaigns shouldn’t be excluded as a possibility, however, it remains unclear wheth

Liberals and Conservatives. The death of freedom stands within those two words.

Why can't everyone just get it together, kill the elite, all several thousand of them. Shit man, there's BILLIONS of us!

That's precisely my own opinion Gary and if you read the 300+ comments and examine the 90+ people that voted approval on that video we chatted on you'll see that with exception of 2 people, everyone agrees with our perceptions of that single subject and these are quite diverse people from a wide variety of backgrounds.

So, it all helps the overall cause. I'm too old to care. I'll be long gone before they actually decide to do anything to people like me and if anything happens sooner, leave a light on.

Gary, I think they know that anyway. The bottom line for me is that ANYTHING and EVERYTHING I do here on the web is kept and known, whether it's a private email to you, a post here or on Facebook, a comment on the Washington Post (Yeah, I do that) or a web site I visited. So for me, it just doesn't matter.

The more time passes the more radical I become because the more pissed off I get that we've industrialized war and created an economy around it and we don't kill elites in war, only ourselves.

Read the link Gary, left my comment. Sometimes I question peoples realities. Chemtrails are real, we know that. We can see them. The evidence so far suggests that they are a demonstration of testing the reflection of certain elements in regards to reflecting the suns rays so that they don't warm the earth. Additional evidence supports the conclusion that they're also a method of increasing military radar effectiveness, various types of radar. To ascertain from an unverified and unverifiable source that we're being chipped by nano-technology by nano-particles that will reassemble inside of us is pure speculation, fantasy and fiction until reliable verifiable sources are provided. Video of whistleblowers, government documents, anything that can be sourced. Hell man, they could have provided fake government documents to at least give it an air of credibility. But this is pure nonsense for now and might always be.

The fact is, we all breath the same air. The elite and us alike.

That's the short list Gary, the full list encompasses a library of data.

Hey, to take over the world or even the web is an ambitious distortion of the facts. In fact, I've used the new app several times on the web to place a post directly on my page. The "Open Graph" app allows me to place a post on the web directly on my Facebook page and I think, as Gary might attest, my Facebook friends are no less radical then those people here and since I have about 150 Muslim friends among my 300+ total friends I have some pretty anti-Zionist anti-NWO friends there.

I have over 300 comments on the last video I posted.

We're all Harry Woo's or life isn't worth living. That's how I see it. If you want me to be Stan Laurel or Oliver Hardy or Joe The Plumber and walk through life with blinders on silent about the injustice or the truths, that isn't me.

So,

Free Gaza
End the Fed, fuck auditing it
End the Bankers control
End Big Pharma
End GMOs
End food additives and preservatives
End Fluoride in water and toothpaste
Indict Congress
Indict the Supreme Court
Indict the last 10 presidents
Indict the Senate

END WAR

END ALL OF THE INJUSTICE

And if you can't speak freely about these things it isn't worth getting up tomorrow morning. So until I'm locked up or dead I intend to speak my mind, everywhere.

Yes well, call me Harry Woo.

I could care less.

What if you were an Al Qaeda operative with a nuclear bomb in the glove box of your Ford Escort?

Even worse, what if you were the government of Iran!!!?
