Heh, did not see this coming... So I was following up on some of the
ICANN information for ore-mine.org and brought up so interesting information about the host. Under the ICANN information the admin email address filed in the whois is listed as
Admin Email: ore-mine.org@allperson.ru
. Of course, the admin is listed as the Host, Legato LLC out the Samara Region in Russia. Well the allperson.ru server is long defunct but seems to have a lot of ties to this Legato host as several of their sites seem to be tied to this email server. This blog was dredged up (It can be found
here.) looking into the email server trying to find out information about it:
Conclusions:
Ok so what do we have? Well, we have a constellation of sites tied to an old defunct email system that seems to have ties to Legato LLC and to Zeus as well as money laundering and such. Why then does this site pop up and start dumping data on famous peoples credit histories? Histories and information that may not in fact be correct to begin with? Even though the USSS and FBI are looking into this I have to wonder if the data was correct. I am hearing that some of the phone numbers were not right at all and that this all really ties back to some hack on credit services this week. What is the motive here? Well, the Twitter feed and one of the links seem to point to someone with a grudge against the LAPD (re the Dorner affair) and the police in Russia. Since the twitter feed is down I missed the tweet that mentioned that but meh, I am not the caring at present.
With this information, if we were to take what Sector said about being locked out with a grain of salt with his supposed geographical region, it is possible that Legato actually pulled the scam and left Sector as the scapegoat/fallguy. I am not defending Sector as he is probably still in on this as he has been gone for a week now with no updated information as well as using Legato assumedly without doing research into Legato itself, as that blog post was from an incident involving said host almost 3 years ago, but I did say a few days ago that there is likely more information than we know about this situation.. This information was found in a couple of minutes simply using google.
