In March 2013, a coalition of spammers and spam-friendly hosting firms pooled their resources to launch what would become the largest distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack the Internet had ever witnessed. The assault briefly knocked offline the world’s largest anti-spam organization, and caused a great deal of collateral damage to innocent bystanders in the process. Here’s a never-before-seen look at how that attack unfolded, and a rare glimpse into the shadowy cybercrime forces that orchestrated it.
The following are excerpts taken verbatim from a series of Skype and IRC chat room logs generated by a group of “bullet-proof cybercrime hosts” — so called because they specialized in providing online hosting to a variety of clientele involved in spammy and scammy activities.

Gathered under the banner ‘STOPhaus,’ the group included a ragtag collection of hackers who got together on the 17th of March 2013 to launch what would quickly grow to a 300+Gigabits per second (Gbps) attack on Spamhaus.org, an anti-spam organization that they perceived as a clear and present danger to their spamming operations.
The attack –a stream of some 300 billion bits of data per second — was so large that it briefly knocked offline Cloudflare, a company that specialized in helping organizations stay online in the face of such assaults. Cloudflare dubbed it “The Attack that Almost Broke the Internet.”
The campaign was allegedly organized by a Dutchman named Sven Olaf Kamphuis (pictured above). Kamphuis ran a company called CB3ROB, which in turn provided services for a Dutch company called “Cyberbunker,” so named because the organization was housed in a five-story NATO bunker and because it had advertised its services as a bulletproof hosting provider.
Kamphuis seemed to honestly believe his Cyberbunker was sovereign territory, even signing his emails “Prince of Cyberbunker Republic.” Arrested in Spain in April 2013 in connection with the attack on Spamhaus, Kamphuis was later extradited to The Netherlands to stand trial. He has publicly denied being part of the attacks and his trial is ongoing.
According to investigators, Kamphuis began coordinating the attack on Spamhaus after the anti-spam outfit added to its blacklist several of Cyberbunker’s Internet address ranges. The following logs, obtained by one of the parties to the week-long game of offensive, showcases the planning and executing of the DDoS attack, including digital assaults on a number of major Internet exchanges. The record also exposes the identities and roles of each of the participants in the attack.
Please note that the logs below are excerpts from a much longer conversation. The entire, unedited chat logs are available here. The logs are periodically broken up by text in italics, which includes additional context about each snippet of conversation. Please note that the logs below may contain speech that some find offensive.

====================================================================
A number of chat members chastise eDataKing for incessantly posting comments to what they refer to as “nanae,” a reference to the venerable Google Groups anti-spam list (news.admin.et-abuse.email) that focused solely on exposing spammers and their spamming activities. eDataKing is flustered and posting on nanae with rapid-fire, emotional replies to anti-spammers, but his buddies don’t want that kind of attention to their cause.
[17.03.2013 20:27:57] Mastermind of Possibilities: Andrew why are you posting in nanae? Stop man lol

Some of the chat participants begin debating whether they should consider adopting residence in a country that do not play well with the United States in terms of extradition.

The plotters begin running scans to find misconfigured or ill-protected systems that can be enslaved in attacks. They’re scanning the Web for domain name servers (DNS) systems that can be used to amplify and disguise or “reflect” the source of their attacks. Narko warns Sven about trying to enlist servers hosted by Dutch ISP Leaseweb, which was known to anticipate such activity and re-route attack traffic back to the true source of the traffic.
[18.03.2013 16:39:22] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: is just global transit thats filtered with them

Spamhaus uses a friendly blog — Wordtothewise.com — to publish an alert that it is “under major dDos.” While Spamhaus is offline, various parties to the attack begin hatching ways to take advantage by poisoning search-engine results so that when one searches for “Spamhaus,” the first several results instead redirect to Stophaus[dot]org, the forum this group set up to coordinate the attacks.

Sven Kamphuis then posts to Pastebin about “OPERATION STOPHAUS,” a tirade that includes a lengthy list of demands Sven says Spamhaus will have to meet in order for the DDoS attack to be called off. Meanwhile, another spam-friendly hosting provider — helpfully known as “Spamahost[dot].com,” joins the chat channel. At this point, the attack has kept Spamhaus.org offline for the better part of 48 hours.

The Stophaus members discover that Spamhaus is now protected by Cloudflare. This amuses the Stophaus members, who note that Spamhaus has frequently listed large swaths of Cloudflare Internet addresses as sources of spam.

[19.03.2013 00:51:33] Cali: spamhaus under cloudflare?
[19.03.2013 00:51:35] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: they still need the spamhaus.org nameservers for that and their shitlist to work
[19.03.2013 00:51:40] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: yeah with spamhaus.eu
[19.03.2013 00:51:46] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: which is a cname to spamhaus.org
[19.03.2013 00:51:59] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: so just take out the 8 spamhaus nameservers and stop targetting the old website
[19.03.2013 00:52:09] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: that ALSO takes out their dns shitlists…

[19.03.2013 00:52:22] Yuri: that’s a fuck. a lot of work for us
[19.03.2013 00:53:20] Yuri: may be just let’s make cloudflare down ?
[19.03.2013 00:53:29] Antitheist: thats hard yuri
[19.03.2013 00:53:31] Yuri: so they will refuse any spamhaus
[19.03.2013 00:53:43] Antitheist: you need to cripple level3 and nlayer

[19.03.2013 00:54:12] Antitheist: you need to spend too much traffic

[19.03.2013 00:56:27] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: as stated before, unfair competition, in many ways
[19.03.2013 00:56:28] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: lulz
[19.03.2013 00:57:46] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: hmm is cloudflare hosting? or a reverse proxy?

[19.03.2013 00:58:00] Yuri: reverse
[19.03.2013 00:58:09] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: as when its a reverse proxy, it probably goes to that spamhaus.as1101.net box

[19.03.2013 01:02:55] Cali: usually websites use cloudflare dns as well.

At this point, several media outlets begin erroneously reporting that the DDoS attack on Spamhaus and Cloudflare is the work of Anonymous (probably because Kamphuis ended his manifesto with the Anonymous tagline, “We do not forgive. We do not forget”).
[19.03.2013 12:35:51] Antitheist: lol, anonymous indonesia took the responsibility for the spamhaus ddos

[19.03.2013 12:56:03] Antitheist: the mail is their weakest point, since cloudflare cannot protect it
[19.03.2013 12:56:22] Antitheist: so we need to hit there. the result means no SBL removals
[19.03.2013 12:56:33] Antitheist: mad mad admins pulling off hair

[19.03.2013 15:10:05] eDataKing: 1. Let them think Anons were behind it and do not dispute
[19.03.2013 15:10:05] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: can’t sign up for twitter as i don’t have any working email lol

getting twitter accounts shut down, listing stophaus on the sbl.
====================================================================
Spamhaus has by now worked out the identity of many Stophaus members, and has begun retaliating at them individually by listing Internet addresses tied to their businesses and personal life. Here, Narko reveals that he runs his own (unprofitable) hosting firm that Spamhaus found and listed it as an address to be blocked because it was hosting stophaus[dot]org.
[19.03.2013 17:50:04] narko: im back
[19.03.2013 17:50:25] narko: the nameservers for stophaus need to be changed
[19.03.2013 17:51:04] narko: spamhaus SBLed my site and my host will terminate me unless spamhaus tells them that it’s ok
[19.03.2013 17:51:08] narko: fucking internet police
[19.03.2013 17:52:57] eDataKing: ok, what are we changing them to?
[19.03.2013 17:53:40] narko: i will set up dns servers on my home connection
[19.03.2013 17:53:41] narko: lol
[19.03.2013 17:53:45] narko: i dont think my isp gives a shit
[19.03.2013 17:53:48] narko: i’m alraedy in PBL
[19.03.2013 17:53:56] eDataKing: lol, as long as you are safe
[19.03.2013 17:53:59] narko: what does it matter if i’m in SBL?
[19.03.2013 17:54:04] narko: well.. as long as they won’t ddos me
[19.03.2013 17:54:05] eDataKing: ok, then it should be all good
[19.03.2013 17:54:06] narko: I have a static ip
[19.03.2013 17:54:18] eDataKing: what about your upstream?
[19.03.2013 17:54:50] narko: I want to buy a /24 and host this just to fuck spamhaus
[19.03.2013 17:54:57] narko: anyone selling /24 i pay €200
[19.03.2013 17:55:34] narko: i cannot believe that my host is telling me i need to leave for a fake SBL listing that is not even hosted at their network
[19.03.2013 17:55:38] Yuri: they will list all network at once and put upsteam
[19.03.2013 17:55:39] narko: why do they listen to spamhaus..?
[19.03.2013 18:21:28] simomchen: let me make a CC to them in China
[19.03.2013 18:21:35] eDataKing: then this will kill them in the end

[19.03.2013 18:22:10] Yuri: stophaus.com moved to new DNS.
[19.03.2013 18:22:16] simomchen: I brought 50K adsl Broilers just now
[19.03.2013 18:22:48] eDataKing: Then their DNS is a ticking timebomb dependent on public support. They don’t have a lot of that left
[19.03.2013 18:23:46] Yuri: 50k of what?
[19.03.2013 18:23:52] Antitheist: DNS of stophaus should be hosted on cloudflare imho
[19.03.2013 18:24:13] Antitheist: they will be afraid to list it lol
[19.03.2013 18:24:20] simomchen: 50000 ADSL broilers zombies , hehe

[19.03.2013 18:40:55] narko: he will just buy a smaller boat
[19.03.2013 18:41:00] simomchen: because cloudflare must charge tons of money form them

====================================================================
Narko has directed most of his botnet resources at Cloudflare now instead of Spamhaus, and the group is surprised to see Spamhaus go offline when it was hidden behind Cloudflare’s massive DDoS protection resources. Also, Yuri enlists the help of some other attackers to join in the assault.

[20.03.2013 01:01:00] narko: i didnt do anything
[20.03.2013 01:01:03] narko: i was just attacking cloudflare
[20.03.2013 01:01:16] Antitheist: well, thats not something they wanted to have
[20.03.2013 01:01:17] narko: see now its back up
[20.03.2013 01:01:36] Cali: It is offline here.
[20.03.2013 01:01:44] Antitheist: off…
[20.03.2013 01:01:45] narko: it went down again
[20.03.2013 01:01:51] narko: and back
[20.03.2013 01:03:11] Cali: yup
[20.03.2013 01:04:33] narko: let’s create some more records
[20.03.2013 01:04:36] narko: for DNS of stophaus
[20.03.2013 01:04:47] narko: dummy records, such as the IP of softlayer.com , etc
[20.03.2013 01:04:55] narko: it won’t affect the site because it will just try from the next server
[20.03.2013 01:05:01] narko: but they’re going to SBL some big sites
[20.03.2013 01:05:02] narko: lol
[20.03.2013 01:05:47] Antitheist: it will create more damage if we list MTAs
[20.03.2013 01:06:06] narko: ok let’s see
[20.03.2013 01:06:20] narko:
[20.03.2013 02:16:57] narko: Cloudflare changed the ips
[20.03.2013 02:16:59] narko: put only 2 IPs now
[20.03.2013 02:17:05] narko: will move attack to these IPs
[20.03.2013 02:18:24] narko: also I have a friend with a small botnet. I asked him to contribute
[20.03.2013 02:19:45] Yuri: i see.
[20.03.2013 02:19:59] Yuri: i asked some hackers to assist also
[20.03.2013 02:20:31] narko: my friend is in saudi arabia. he has bots in arab regions. will provide some diversity to the attack.
[20.03.2013 02:20:52] Yuri: spamhaus sbl site is the high end of iceberg
[20.03.2013 02:21:11] Yuri: did you try to put down spamhas relates sites?
[20.03.2013 02:21:23] narko: after spamhaus.org main site :))
[20.03.2013 02:21:55] narko: i am just getting very annoyed at this company now
[20.03.2013 02:22:08] narko: i just received 2 minutes ago “We are sorry to inform that your account has been terminated.” from my host.
[20.03.2013 02:22:14] narko: due to SBL
[20.03.2013 02:22:43] Yuri: on what host?
[20.03.2013 02:22:52] narko: EuroVPS.com
[20.03.2013 02:23:02] Yuri: write me pm what do you need
[20.03.2013 03:13:26] narko: lets host here
[20.03.2013 03:13:38] narko:http://www.beltelecom.by/business/hosting/virtual-dedicated-server
[20.03.2013 03:13:45] narko: i dont think they can even speak english. to read the abuse report from spamhaus.
[20.03.2013 03:14:03] Cali: lol
20.03.2013 17:07:45] eDataKing: lol
[20.03.2013 17:27:58] narko: looks like one of the cloudflare dc is down
[20.03.2013 17:28:08] narko: previously my connection to spamhaus was to amsterdam
[20.03.2013 17:28:10] narko: now it’s to paris
[20.03.2013 17:28:53] simomchen: keeping ddos them , then , cloudflare will cick SH out
[20.03.2013 17:29:03] narko: i am adding more
[20.03.2013 17:29:20] narko: if you know anyone with botnet – ask them to help too. there will be a point where even the $2000 cloudflare enterprise plan is not worth it to them.
[20.03.2013 17:31:42] simomchen: maybe someone joined us. SH released xxx is making ddos them. and some other guys saw this.but do not connect us. they was blackmailed by SH before. so , it’s a hidden retaliation time for them
[20.03.2013 17:32:04] narko: hope so
[20.03.2013 17:32:09] narko: it seems they split the load between 2 dc [datacenters] actually
[20.03.2013 17:32:12] Antitheist: who is ddosing them?
[20.03.2013 17:32:17] narko: spamhauas has 2 ip and 1 is amsterdam other is paris
[20.03.2013 17:32:18] Antitheist: where did you see it idear4business
[20.03.2013 17:33:16] Yuri: look, there too much people who is not active here. may be we could remove them from this chat ?
[20.03.2013 17:33:29] narko: yes I think that’s good idea. there’s some people who i have never seen one messaage
[20.03.2013 17:33:48] simomchen: they do not wanna to show their identity, just wanna to make retaliation. I guess those. can not seeing this. but at least , some of our clients also joined , and making ddos SH from China. they hate spamhaus , because SH made their domains ‘clent hold’ (over 50000 domains) in the passed year
[20.03.2013 17:33:49] Yuri: let’s create new one subchat and move there. how is the idea?
[20.03.2013 17:34:32] Antitheist: spamhaus made 500 of my domains hold
[20.03.2013 17:34:38] narko: everyone who has bp host
[20.03.2013 17:34:40] Antitheist: cnobin, its a bizcn reseller
[20.03.2013 17:34:46] narko: hijack the botnets of your clients and ddos spamhaus
[20.03.2013 17:34:51] Antitheist: lol)))
[20.03.2013 17:35:14] narko: my experience with BP hosts – you can always get some free bots from whoever used the IP previously :))))
[20.03.2013 17:35:27] Antitheist: if you have the same panel
[20.03.2013 17:35:40] narko: well I just adapt my software to accept their commands
[20.03.2013 17:35:41] simomchen: no need to hijack , if our clients wanna to ddos someone , they will buy some botnets. it’s cheap in China , like 0.01 EUR/each
[20.03.2013 17:35:44] narko: most of them are not encrypted at all
[20.03.2013 17:35:45] NM:
[20.03.2013 17:35:50] simomchen: Sven also know that
[20.03.2013 17:35:56] narko: each bot?
[20.03.2013 17:36:01] simomchen: yes
[20.03.2013 17:36:06] simomchen: ADSL bot
[20.03.2013 17:36:10] narko: what is the upload speed of china ADSL?
[20.03.2013 17:36:16] simomchen: with dynamic IP
[20.03.2013 17:36:24] simomchen: just 50-100Kbps
[20.03.2013 17:36:40] narko: we need some netherland/sweden/romania bots
[20.03.2013 17:36:49] narko: they have 100mbps or more
[20.03.2013 17:37:04] NM: In Russia too

[20.03.2013 17:38:09] narko: spamhaus can make down .cn domains ?
[20.03.2013 17:38:18] Yuri: yes.
[20.03.2013 17:38:39] simomchen: our clients is selling something to EU and US, so , they do not use .cn
[20.03.2013 17:38:50] simomchen: usually , they use .com/net
[20.03.2013 17:39:16] narko: they should apply for a new tld
[20.03.2013 17:39:17] narko: .ugg
[20.03.2013 17:39:33] simomchen: yes
[20.03.2013 17:39:51] Antitheist: .rx

[20.03.2013 17:40:09] Yuri: .ugg (y)
[20.03.2013 17:40:17] narko: (sun)
[20.03.2013 17:40:43] narko: i hosted botnets under .w2c.ru domain
[20.03.2013 17:41:10] narko: and the domain was not made down
[20.03.2013 17:41:34] Yuri: hey. wtf, it’s my domain
[20.03.2013 17:41:41] narko: yes I had dedicated server
[20.03.2013 17:41:44] narko: free subdomain
[20.03.2013 17:41:57] Yuri: :O:D
[20.03.2013 17:42:11] narko: but i needed to move
[20.03.2013 17:42:19] narko: because a big ISP in Europe blocked all your ip range
[20.03.2013 17:42:26] narko: i lost half my bots
[20.03.2013 17:44:53] narko: ok. currently i have running against spamhaus:
[20.03.2013 17:45:15] narko: ~100Gbps UDP
~ 20M pps TCP
~ 65k req/s HTTP
distributed between the 2 IP
[20.03.2013 17:45:21] narko: cloudflare must remove them soon..
[20.03.2013 17:45:21] narko: cloudflare must remove them soon.
[20.03.2013 19:25:20] narko: i think spamhaus wrote to my pamyent processor
[20.03.2013 19:25:23] narko: has it happened before?
[20.03.2013 19:25:44] narko: an IP address started to browse my site. assigned to 2Checkout Inc. now my merchant account is put into a review status.
[20.03.2013 19:27:32] eDataKing: How did they get your processor’s info?
[20.03.2013 19:27:43] narko: they require it to be written in the site
[20.03.2013 19:27:48] narko: “Services provided by 2Checkout Inc”
[20.03.2013 19:27:51] eDataKing: Also, they tried that with my Paypal account for 3 years. We are still Top-Tier members
[20.03.2013 19:28:03] eDataKing: they reviewed the records and it took 6 hours to be restored
[20.03.2013 19:28:18] eDataKing: no other complaint ever made it past the first level of abuse
[20.03.2013 19:28:20] narko: lol
[20.03.2013 19:28:31] narko: someone called paypal and said i was threatening to kill them unless they paid me money
[20.03.2013 19:28:34] narko: and my account was limited for a week
====================================================================
At this point, Narko is sending between 150-300 Gbps of packet love at Cloudflare’s major datacenter Internet addresses. Cloudflare.com briefly goes offline. Cloudflare publishes a blog post stating that the attack was successfully handled and mitigated by Cloudflare. Narko disagrees, saying Cloudflare was able to mitigate the attack because he paused it. Spamhaus posts an update on the ongoing attacks, claiming that most of its operations are returning to normal.
Narko shares this screenshot in the chat forum. It shows that the attack on Cloudflare is at more than 100 Gbps, which is more than enough to knock most sites offline.
20.03.2013 19:58:21] narko: did someone else start attack to cloudflare? their site is even down now :))
[20.03.2013 19:58:27] Yuri: we need to post it to the public, in twitter and etc?
[20.03.2013 20:33:19] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: we’ll just break the god damn internet if thats what it takes

[20.03.2013 20:46:45] eDataKing: news to me
[20.03.2013 20:47:11] eDataKing: hmm
[20.03.2013 20:47:12] eDataKing: CloudFlare’s own history grew out of Project Honey Pot, which started as an automated service to track the resources used by spammers and publishes the HTTP:BL.
[20.03.2013 20:47:21] eDataKing: good data
[20.03.2013 20:47:24] eDataKing: didn’t know that
[20.03.2013 20:48:53] eDataKing: Beginning on March 18th?
[20.03.2013 20:48:59] eDataKing: that is factually incorrect
[20.03.2013 20:51:11] narko: reading now
[20.03.2013 20:51:47] eDataKing: the attack did not start a day before their great admins mitigated it
[20.03.2013 20:51:54] eDataKing: is it even mitigated?
[20.03.2013 20:52:12] narko: hehehehe :)))))))))))))))))))))
[20.03.2013 20:52:15] narko: this is like 140Gbps
[20.03.2013 20:52:27] eDataKing: lol
[20.03.2013 20:52:37] eDataKing: don’t look like mitigation to me lol
[20.03.2013 20:52:57] eDataKing: Their article almost reads as a challenge
[20.03.2013 20:53:14] narko: I stopped the attack
[20.03.2013 20:53:25] narko: i am generating a new dns list. then I will start again and it will be over 200 gbps
[20.03.2013 20:53:30] narko: the current list is quite old
====================================================================
Narko grows concerned about getting busted because Andrew (eDataKing) mistakenly published on the anti-spam Google Group forum NANAE a screenshot that included Narko’s Skype screen name. Helpfully for the U.K. authorities closing in on him, Narko provides a link to view the screenshot that includes what he identifies as his Skype screen name.
Narko’s screen as he’s in the middle of launching attacks on Spamhaus. A portion of his Skype address at the time can be seen in the upper right corner of the screenshot.
20.03.2013 21:08:59] eDataKing: lol,
[20.03.2013 21:08:59] eDataKing: This morning at 09:47 UTC CloudFlare effectively dropped off the Internet. The outage affected all of CloudFlare’s services including DNS and any services that rely on our web proxy. During the outage, anyone accessing CloudFlare.com or any site on CloudFlare’s network would have received a DNS error. Pings and Traceroutes to CloudFlare’s network resulted in a “No Route to Host” error.

[20.03.2013 21:09:25] eDataKing: sry, that was on 03-03
[20.03.2013 21:09:27] eDataKing: not related
[20.03.2013 21:09:38] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: someone was doing it better than narko ?
[20.03.2013 21:09:40] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: wth
[20.03.2013 21:09:41] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: lol
[20.03.2013 21:09:48] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: get that guy in here too haha
[20.03.2013 21:09:57] eDataKing: wait to see what narko does next though
[20.03.2013 21:15:03] Yuri: spamhaus down ?
[20.03.2013 21:15:07] Yuri: cloudflare shows down
[20.03.2013 21:15:34] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: nope
[20.03.2013 21:15:38] eDataKing: nope
[20.03.2013 21:19:37] narko: we need to find more people.
[20.03.2013 21:19:49] narko: cloudflare network just has a lag with my attack
[20.03.2013 21:20:00] narko: my attack + some botnets will take them down entirely. then they have no choice but to kick spamhaus.
[20.03.2013 22:24:39] narko: who posted the screenshot on nanae please remove it
[20.03.2013 22:24:41] narko: it has written my skype name
[20.03.2013 22:24:59] narko: t.ravis
[20.03.2013 22:25:04] eDataKing: that was the indian
[20.03.2013 22:25:13] eDataKing: you said to post it
[20.03.2013 22:25:22] eDataKing: I’ll tell him
[20.03.2013 22:25:31] eDataKing: I don’t think it can be removed though
[20.03.2013 22:25:52] eDataKing: argh, why didn’t you edit that image?
[20.03.2013 22:26:01] eDataKing: I will be sure to check all images from here out
[20.03.2013 22:26:11] eDataKing: but doesn’t the image only say probing?
[20.03.2013 22:26:24] narko: no it has my skype username
[20.03.2013 22:26:27] narko: i didn’t expcet it to be posted
[20.03.2013 22:26:29] narko: i just said

[20.03.2013 22:27:51] Yuri: don’t see any info on screenshot
[20.03.2013 22:28:09] eDataKing: I see all but the last digit
[20.03.2013 22:28:16] eDataKing: enough to run a trace on that skype account
[20.03.2013 22:28:28] eDataKing: but nothing incriminating
[20.03.2013 22:28:48] eDataKing: don’t they already blame you though?
[20.03.2013 22:28:59] narko: no one on nanae/spamhaus knows about me
[20.03.2013 22:29:03] eDataKing: I’ll tell the indian to wait for approval bwefore posting anything else
[20.03.2013 22:29:16] eDataKing: I will also look at the images if there are any more screens
[20.03.2013 22:29:38] eDataKing: can you grab a new skype account and nix this one just in case?
[20.03.2013 22:29:44] narko: i am just worried. because it has my skype name < i am uploaded the image from my home connection, and FBI in USA already has a case on me ddosing before, they were going to people in america and asking them questions about me
[20.03.2013 22:29:44] narko: no
[20.03.2013 22:29:45] narko: its fine for me
[20.03.2013 22:29:48] narko: for now *
[20.03.2013 22:29:50] eDataKing: you said this one was for this session only right?
[20.03.2013 22:29:53] narko: yes
[20.03.2013 22:30:22] eDataKing: the image won’t have any hex code though because it is on imgur
[20.03.2013 22:30:24] Yuri: other solution – is to upload same imase from other IPs
[20.03.2013 22:30:31] eDataKing: yes
[20.03.2013 22:30:36] Yuri: so they have to think who is that was…
[20.03.2013 22:30:41] eDataKing: oh, gotcha
[20.03.2013 22:30:44] eDataKing: yeah
[20.03.2013 22:31:13] eDataKing: I am so used to be completly anon that I would have never imagined you imported that from home
[20.03.2013 22:31:54] eDataKing: can you delete it from imgur?
[20.03.2013 22:32:30] eDataKing: I want to mitigate any issues because the indian is my dude and I feel responsible for what he did
[20.03.2013 22:32:34] narko: no
[20.03.2013 22:32:37] narko: nothing will happen
[20.03.2013 22:32:41] narko: nothing has ever happened
[20.03.2013 22:29:44] narko: i am just worried. because it has my skype name < i am uploaded the image from my home connection, and FBI in USA already has a case on me ddosing before, they were going to people in america and asking them questions about me.
[20.03.2013 22:40:58] narko: but I ran an illegal site (carding, ddos, etc) from 2010-2012 and 90% customers were US
[21.03.2013 03:40:43] narko: well i’m going to sleep
[21.03.2013 03:40:49] narko: wll attack cloudflare again tomorrow

[21.03.2013 10:14:54] eDataKing: yep
[21.03.2013 10:15:10] eDataKing: but they are only buying a short amlunt of time really
[21.03.2013 10:16:23] simomchen: they must have a contract with cloudflare and amazon , once ddos leave over 7 days. maybe, they will break the contract with these 2 companies
[21.03.2013 13:19:10] Antitheist: congratilations narko your SBL was removed

Spamhaus succeeds in getting Stophaus[dot]org suspended at the domain registry level. This angers Prinz Sven, who begins coming unglued — threatening to attack or harm the domain registrar and anyone else involved in the suspension. Sven even goes so far as to post a manifesto on his Facebook account, taking on the persona of a pirate and lobbing threats of additional DDoS attacks as well as physical violence against Spmahaus members.

[21.03.2013 18:43:44] eDataKing: but why wouldn’t they…this is very likely to be their version of Custard’s Last Stand
[21.03.2013 18:44:11] Yuri: like twitter, email account, icq, facebook, home LAN ADSL IP, domains in the next zones like .ru, .su, .to

[23.03.2013 16:41:43] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: and cloudflare has network issues, so at some point they’ll have to boot spamhaus as it affects their other clients
[23.03.2013 16:42:00] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: at which point, spamhaus has nowhere else to go that can cover them
[23.03.2013 16:42:13] HRH Prinz Sven Olaf von CyberBunker-Kamphuis MP: i doubt google is stupid enough to take them lol
====================================================================
The Skype chat goes quiet at this point and resumes four weeks later. Narko’s worries about his Skype screen name showing up in a screenshot that eDataKing posted to anti-spam forum turn out to be warranted: It is this very screenshot that authorities in the United Kingdom use to later track him down and arrest him.
In April 2013, Kamphuis is arrested in Spain and eventually sent back to the Netherlands, where he is currently on trial. He publicly denies being involved in launching the attacks on Spamhaus.
Narko was a juvenile when he was arrested by the U.K.’s National Crime Agency (NCA); when the NCA raided Narko’s home, they found his computer still logged in to crime forums, and they seized £70,000 from his bank account (believed to be payments for DDoS attacks). Narko later pleaded guilty to coordinating the attacks, but because of his age and in return for cooperating with the NCA he avoided a jail term.

[26.04.2013 20:41:25] Hephaistos: more badnews
[26.04.2013 20:41:56] Cali: Who has written that?
[26.04.2013 20:42:09] Hephaistos: I have no idea.
[26.04.2013 20:42:23] Hephaistos: its over the news everyone is freaking out
[26.04.2013 20:42:25] Cali: It seems to have be written by a 12 years old.
[26.04.2013 20:42:31] Cali: been*
[26.04.2013 20:42:52] Hephaistos: correct, seems like a trol to me. But tell that to the media
[26.04.2013 20:43:03] Hephaistos: and the 90% dumb people
[26.04.2013 20:43:09] Cali: Also I don’t understand.
[26.04.2013 20:43:23] Cali: How is it possible to get such reflection in media by posting something on pastebin?
[26.04.2013 20:43:37] Cali: So if I post that I am going to attack the U.S on pastebin, I would be in the news?
[26.04.2013 20:43:58] Hephaistos: Well, thing is that people think that banks will be ddosed and cannot get their
money. So their hoping that there will be a bankrun.
[26.04.2013 20:44:45] Cali: It is very doubtful that DDoSing the website of a bank will prevent the bank from operating.
[26.04.2013 20:46:45] Hephaistos: it will cost the bank money
[26.04.2013 20:47:32] Cali: Maybe to crap bank.
[26.04.2013 20:48:07] Cali: it will be insignifiant
[26.04.2013 20:48:11] Cali: insignificant.

====================================================================
To my knowledge, nobody else associated with this attack has been arrested or brought to justice. This chat log is fascinating because it highlights how easy it has been and remains for cybercriminals to commit massively disruptive attacks and get away with it.
These days, some of the biggest and most popular DDoS attack resources are in the hands of a few young men operating DDoS-for-hire “booter” or “stresser” services that in some cases accept both credit cards and PayPal, as well as Bitcoin. An upcoming investigation to be published soon by KrebsOnSecurity will provide perhaps the most detailed look yet at the this burgeoning and quite profitable industry. Stay tuned!
