INTERPOL Shuts Down Sniper Dz Phishing Platform
INTERPOL has dismantled the Sniper Dz phishing platform, disrupting a major cybercrime operation used to steal credentials.
INTERPOL has disrupted a phishing platform known as Sniper Dz as part of a coordinated international cybercrime operation targeting infrastructure used to steal account credentials and facilitate online fraud.
The takedown was carried out during a broader effort aimed at dismantling phishing networks and malicious infrastructure used by cyber-criminals to target victims across multiple countries.
According to investigators, Sniper Dz operated as a phishing service that allowed users to create and deploy fraudulent websites designed to mimic legitimate online services.
Such platforms are commonly used to harvest usernames, passwords and other sensitive information, enabling attackers to compromise accounts and conduct additional criminal activity.
Authorities seized infrastructure linked to the operation and gathered digital evidence as part of the investigation.
The disruption forms part of INTERPOL’s ongoing efforts to combat cybercrime, phishing operations and online fraud schemes through international cooperation between law enforcement agencies and private-sector partners.
Recent INTERPOL-led operations have resulted in hundreds of arrests, the identification of thousands of victims and the seizure of servers and malicious infrastructure linked to phishing, malware and financial fraud campaigns.
Officials said cross-border cooperation remains critical as cybercriminal groups continue to rely on globally distributed infrastructure to conduct phishing attacks and other forms of online crime.
Authorities have not publicly disclosed all technical details regarding the operation, but the disruption of the platform is expected to reduce access to phishing infrastructure used by cyber-criminals.
Law enforcement agencies are continuing to investigate individuals believed to be connected to the service and its users.
