"Handala suggested on its website that the emails contained classified information, but the messages initially reviewed by WIRED didn't appear to be related to any government work."
"To the whole world, we declare: the FBI is just a name, and behind this name, there is no real security. If your director can be compromised this easily, what do you expect from your lower-level employees?"
"This substantial prize will be awarded, directly and securely, to any individual or group bold enough to show true action against tyranny."
Handala, believed to be a front for Iran's MOIS, claimed to have hacked the FBI but evidence shows it breached a personal Gmail account. The emails reviewed did not contain classified information. Handala is described as an opportunistic hacker group focused on propaganda rather than tactical impacts. They declared the FBI lacks real security, questioning the safety of lower-level employees. Additionally, Handala offered a $50 million bounty for the assassination of Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu, promoting their message through encrypted communication channels.
