Jordan Detention of ReyXBF Hands FBI SLH Admin Logs, Exposing ShinyHunters Lineage to BreachForums

Rey detention supplies FBI with SLH admin communications that link ShinyHunters to prior BreachForums and Hellcat operations. Technical evidence from Krebs and Sekoia shows lineage overlap ignored in official attribution. Additional arrests are now gated on seized log analysis rather than new human sources.

Next phase centers on infrastructure takedowns: once Khader's logs map remaining C2 domains, expect coordinated domain seizures and at least two additional arrests before year-end.

⚡ Prediction

FBI: Two additional SLH-linked arrests executed within 90 days of domain seizures tied to Rey logs.
