Overview

• The operation, led by the U.S. Secret Service and FBI, was supported by the Dutch National Police, The ShadowServer Foundation and Searchlight Cyber.
• BidenCash operated from March 2022 until its shutdown, serving over 117,000 customers and trafficking more than 15 million payment card numbers.
• The marketplace generated over $17 million in illicit revenue and routinely leaked stolen credit card data to attract new users.
• Law enforcement also obtained court authorization to seize cryptocurrency funds tied to BidenCash’s proceeds of crime.
• This disruption follows broader efforts like Operation RapTor, which recently led to 270 arrests and the seizure of $200 million in assets across ten countries.
