The FBI seized BreachForums, a website infamous for publishing breached data.
The seizure was made on Wednesday morning as part of an ongoing investigation into BreachForums and Raidforums.
This comes days after the Europol Platform for Experts (EPE) portals data was breached.
The FBI has pulled off the seizure with the help of the Department of Justice and international partners.
This means that the investigation bureau has access to all the transactions conducted through the hacking forum.
The FBI investigation page also contains a contact form that victims can use.
