This 25yo British hacker sold $2 MILLION of stolen data and got caught from a single $250 transaction
Kai West ran the dark web’s biggest stolen data marketplace for 2 years under the name IntelBroker
He hacked Apple, AMD, Cisco, Nokia, HPE, General Electric, Europol, the US Pentagon and a database exposing the personal info of every member of the US Congress
He even built a LinkedIn profile claiming he worked at the UK’s FBI equivalent, which later said they had never heard of him
He only sold in Monero, because of it‘s privacy feature
In January 2023 an FBI agent asked to buy $250 of stolen data and convinced him to accept Bitcoin this time instead of Monero
That $250 Bitcoin went into a wallet linked to his real Coinbase account, registered with his actual UK driver’s license
The FBI then spent 2 years matching his YouTube history to posts on his hacker forum, then arrested him in France in February 2025
By then he caused $25 million in damage to 40+ companies and became the owner of the dark web forum he was selling on
He stepped down in January 2025 saying he was “too busy” and was arrested 3 weeks later
