FBI Probes Service Selling 153M+ Drivers Licenses

Matched: medical

A dark web service called Nexus was selling scans of over 153 million drivers licenses from the US and Canada, apparently stolen from Louisiana-based identity verification company IDScan.net. Timestamps on stolen records matched when victims used services at Hertz rental car locations and marijuana dispensaries. The FBI's New Orleans field office opened an investigation, and Nexus subsequently went offline. IDScan.net confirmed unauthorized access to customer data including names and ID numbers.

Cybercriminals Are Selling Corporate Executives’ Social Security Numbers for Just 25 Cents

Matched: health

Rapid7 has tracked 476 compromised SSN records tied to 395 corporate executives on dark web marketplaces since early 2026, with records selling for as little as 25 cents. C-suite executives account for 44.6% of affected profiles. Three platforms — Xilo, Bankomat, and PeopleFinder — represent 81.5% of leaks, sourcing data from large breaches, infostealers, and phishing. Unlike passwords or cards, SSNs cannot be changed, making them permanently exploitable for fraud and impersonation schemes.
