The use of the Darknet by criminals to purchase and sell goods and information is not a new phenomenon. Everyone has seen television reports about illegal black markets for drugs, weapons, stolen credit cards, social media codes, and other accounts such as Netflix, to name a few. But are you aware of another Darknet service that can be purchased? Hackers for Hire is a term that refers to personalized hacking against any organization or entity that the person paying for the service specifies. Websites that advertise Hackers for Hire are often not difficult to come by. I was able to bring up ten separate Hacker for Hire pages without much effort while working on a Darknet review to identify newly-created sites on the Darknet.

Who would require or need this service, and how easy would it be to find one? Anyone who lacks the technological capacity to carry out the types of attacks mentioned below, or who is upset at an individual or organization and willing to pay someone to target them, will be a possible buyer. These programs will be relatively easy to locate if they know where to search.

The Internet is a huge space, made up of billions of individual websites that are linked together in a variety of complex ways. Despite the fact that Internet habits have been ingrained in our daily lives, the Internet has only been available for a few decades. While the Darknet is used for certain lawful reasons, such as providing free access to news and information to people living under totalitarian regimes, the majority of the pages on the Darknet host illicit material. The Darknet is mostly used by people who want to download, chat, write, and buy/sell anonymously.

Social network hacking is one of the services provided by hackers for hire, with a variety of choices to pick from. The most common is taking the password for a social media site. Another possibility is for the hacker to gain control of the account. When a hacker has control of an account, they can upload items that the customer has requested. They will also send private messages to the target's contacts list in order to sabotage partnerships and send information that disparages the target. The Hacker for Hire websites doesn't go into any detail on how they gain access to accounts or obtain passwords. Credential harvesters, phishing emails, or trying stolen credentials that might have been compromised in a third-party data breach are most likely being used.

Every day, social media hacking becomes more commonplace. For example, the Milwaukee Bucks Giannis Antetokounmpo's social media accounts were hacked, and the hacker began making racist and insulting remarks about other athletes. The Twitter account of Jack Dorsey, the company's CEO, and co-founder were hacked, and the hacker made racist and other offensive remarks.

In terms of what the hackers sell as a service, email theft is close to social media hacking. Hacker for Hire organizations claims to be able to supply passwords and transfer information from that email address. Any hacker organizations want to hide their true intentions by pretending to have a service for people who have forgotten their email addresses.

There is also instruction for those who wish to learn how to hack for themselves on the Darknet. From defacements to credential mining, this includes a wide variety of operations. Customers are usually given step-by-step instructions or videos to follow.

Many Hacker for Hire groups sells website defacements, which entails giving them a website and having them replace the home page with a message that the client has sent to the hacker.

School hacking allows "customers" to have their grades altered, their class schedule altered, or a teacher's email password given. They provide these programs to students in grades K through 12 as well as college students.

Someone may employ a hacker to take down a connection if they want it taken down from the Internet. Mugshot removal, blog link removal, and Google link removal are among the services offered by Hackers for Hire.

Another tool available on the Darknet is destroying a company's credibility. The Hacker for Hire gangs will do this in a variety of ways, including starting a negative marketing campaign, leaving poor feedback, defacing websites, taking down websites, and more.

DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks are popular, and they're still the oldest Hacker for Hire service. The cost varies based on the scale of the target and the length of time the client expects it to be taken down.

Don't fall victim to the con artists or scammers.
You may be tempted to try your protection by paying one of these groups to see whether they can effectively break in after hearing about the "resources" provided by Hacker for Hire groups. In the end, don't do it.
