Group-IB has supported INTERPOL in its Lyrebird operation that resulted in the identification and apprehension of a threat actor presumably responsible for multiple attacks worldwide.
👥 According to Group-IB’s Threat Intelligence team, the suspect, dubbed Dr HeX by Group-IB based on one of the nicknames that he used, has been active since at least 2009 and is responsible for a number of cybercrimes, including phishing, defacing, malware development, fraud, and carding that resulted in thousands of unsuspecting victims.
⚔️ The alleged perpetrator, who turned out to be a citizen of Morocco, was arrested in May by the Moroccan police based on the data about his cybercrimes that was provided by Group-IB.
🧑💻 The starting point of Group-IB’s research to identify and deanonymize the cybercriminal was the extraction of a phishing kit (a tool used to create phishing web pages) exploiting the brand of a large French bank by Group-IB’s Threat Intelligence & Attribution system.
🔁 The set-up of the detected phishing kit followed a common technique, with the creation of a spoofed website of a targeted company, the mass distribution of emails impersonating it and asking users to enter login information on the spoofed site. The credentials left by unsuspecting victims on the fake page were then redirected to the perpetrator’s email. Almost each of the scripts contained in the phishing kit had its creator’s nickname, Dr HeX, and contact email address.

Operation Falcon II: Group-IB assists INTERPOL, Nigerian Police Force in action to apprehend 11 cybercriminals💥💥💥
Earlier in the day, INTERPOL made public the results of a 10-day operation by the Nigerian Police Force as a result of which 11 alleged members of a prolific cybercrime network were arrested. Many of the suspects arrested are thought to be members of TMT BEC gang (aka Silver Terrier).
Group-IB’s APAC Cyber Investigations Team has contributed to the operation by sharing information on the threat actors, having identified the attackers’ infrastructure, collected their digital traces and assembled data on their identities. Group-IB has also expanded the investigation’s evidence base by reverse engineering the samples of malware used by the cybercriminals and conducting the digital forensics analysis of the files contained on the devices seized from the suspects. The operation was also supported by Palo Alto Networks Unit 42👏
The first edition of Operation Falcon, a joint action by INTERPOL, Group-IB and Nigeria Police Force, was held in November 2020 and resulted in the apprehension of three alleged members of the TMT gang.

🤝Operation Delilah: Group-IB helps INTERPOL nab suspected leader of transnational phishing ring.
As part of operation Delilah, Group-IB provided threat intelligence that led to the identification of the alleged head of a cybercrime syndicate that launched mass phishing campaigns and business email compromise (BEC) schemes targeting thousands of companies and individual victims. The arrest of a 37-year-old Nigerian man by the Nigeria Police Force marked the culmination of the year-long international operation coordinated and facilitated by the INTERPOL’s cybercrime directorate and supported by Group-IB, Palo Alto Networks, and Trend Micro.
Operation Delilah was preceded by INTERPOL-led Falcon I and Falcon II, carried out in 2020 and 2021 with the support of Group-IB’s Cyber Investigations Team. The two previous operations resulted in the arrest of 14 alleged members of TMT (aka SilverTerrier), a prolific BEC and phishing syndicate.
"The Delilah operation clearly demonstrates how effective cybersecurity can be when all parties are involved and motivated to protect people and companies," said Dmitry Volkov, Group-IB CEO. "We are proud to have leveraged our expertise to support another great effort aimed at disrupting cybercrime. Prompt threat intelligence sharing, private-public partnership, and effective multi-party coordination by INTERPOL’s Cybercrime Directorate were crucial to the success of the operation. We’ll continue our work to minimize the impact of cybercrime in line with Group-IB’s mission of fighting cybercrime and protecting our customers all around the world."

🤝 Group-IB has contributed to the INTERPOL-led Africa Cyber Surge Operation to combat cybercrime on continent.
The Africa Cyber Surge Operation, a multinational cybercrime suppression operation focused on identifying cybercriminals and compromised infrastructure, was launched in July 2022. The operation’s strategic goal was to enhance cooperation between African law enforcement agencies to prevent, mitigate, investigate, and pursue threat actors.
Several key results of the operation included:
▪️the arrest of 10 individuals linked to scam and fraud activities worth $800,000;
▪️the takedown by the authorities in Eritrea of a darknet market that was selling hacking tools;
▪️action taken against more than 200,000 pieces of malicious infrastructure that was facilitating cybercrime across Africa.
For this operation Group-IB collected information about malicious and phishing network infrastructure hosted within member countries in Africa. Group-IB investigators leveraged the company’s sector-leading Threat Intelligence to produce a detailed report along with recommendations for the member countries.
“The Africa Cyber Surge Operation is another example of how cybersecurity is most effective when international law enforcement, individual nations, and private sector partners cooperate to share best practices and take a proactive approach to stamping out cybercrime. Group-IB is fully committed to its zero-tolerance policy to cybercrime, and our recent participation in the Africa Cyber Surge Operation underscores our desire to collaborate with our law enforcement partners and share best practices and information on the latest cyber threats,” Dmitry Volkov, CEO at Group-IB, said.
