The Truth Behind the Epic Games Hack
A recent report from Cyber Daily, an Australian cybersecurity site, shed more light on the alleged hack on Epic Games. According to the report, the supposed hacker group, known as Mogilevich, was not a hacker group after all.
Instead, Mogilevich was revealed to be a group of self-proclaimed "criminal geniuses" and "professional fraudsters" who used their darkweb blog to pretend to steal from Epic Games.
