最新报道:The U.S. Department of Justice is seeking forfeiture of 280 Bitcoin (worth approximately $4.5 million) linked to the Chaos ransomware group. The funds were allegedly used in cyberattacks targeting victims worldwide, including a Kansas hospital in 2021. The DOJ claims the Bitcoin was transferred to a specific wallet address connected to the group's activities. This action follows previous seizures of cryptocurrency tied to ransomware operations, as authorities intensify efforts to disrupt cybercriminal financing. The forfeiture request is part of broader U.S. government initiatives to combat ransomware threats and trace illicit cryptocurrency transactions.
