Overview
- A Telegram post from a group calling itself Scattered LapSus Hunters tells Google to dismiss Austin Larsen and Charles Carmakal.
- The ultimatum also calls for a pause in Google Threat Intelligence Group investigations into the network.
- Outlets report the hackers provided no evidence of access to Google databases and no new compromise has been confirmed.
- The group claims links to Scattered Spider, LapSus, and ShinyHunters, positioning itself as a collective of multiple crews.
- Google previously disclosed that ShinyHunters obtained business contact data via a third-party Salesforce instance, and reporters say they have requested comment on the new threat.
