Cyber Guerrillas From Belarus Try to List NFT Passport Collection on Opensea

A hacking group known as ‘Belarusian Cyber ​​Partisans’ have bragged about gaining access to a government database storing the passport details of every citizen of Belarus, including high-ranking officials like the country’s long-term head of state, Alexander Lukashenko.

The hackers have released a collection of non-fungible tokens (NFT-ji) called “Passports of Belarusians,” which also is said to contain the passport data of the country’s president and his close associates. The group further tried to list the collection on leading NFT marketplace Opensea, but the platform removed it as a violation of its terms.

Promoting their initiative on Twitter, the group noted it’s launching the NFTs exactly on Lukashenko’s birthday, Aug. 30. “Help us ruin it for him,” they urge followers while also suggesting a “special offer” — to buy a version of his passport with a photo of “the dictator… behind the bars… while he’s still alive.”

In another tweet, the hacktivist collective says it has also put the passports of Lukashenko’s closest allies “and traitors of the people of Belarus and Ukraine” up for sale. Its members promise that all raised funds will go to support “our work in hitting bloody regimes in Minsk & Moscow.”

Vendar, some in the crypto community have doubted the authenticity of the identification documents, the Russian crypto news outlet Bits.media remarks in a report. It points to a typo on the first page depicted in the digital version of Lukashenko’s passport and a misspelling of his first name in English.

‘Belarusian Cyber Partisans’ has been targeting the Lukashenko-led administration of the Eastern European nation for its support — logistical and otherwise — of Russia’s invasion of neighboring Ukraine. Na primer, it took responsibility for a cyberattack on the Belarusian railroad system, demanding the withdrawal of Russian troops from the country.

The hacking group has been raising funds in cryptocurrency to finance its activities. According to a report by blockchain analytics firm Elliptic published in early February, before Russia launched its “special military operation” in Ukraine, the Belarusian cyber guerrillas had been able to collect $84,000 v BTC in the preceding six months.
