XSS cybercrime forum rises from the dead – just one day after being raided by Europol. Ahem… honeypot.

On July 22, 2025, the XXX.is forum, one of the largest and longest-standing Russian-speaking cybercrime marketplaces, was taken offline after a coordinated, multi-year investigation involving Ukrainian authorities, French police, and Europol.

A statement posted by an administrator account claimed the forum’s infrastructure remained intact and reassured users that restoration efforts were underway. Security researchers say, not so fast. Is this a real-life resurrection or a law enforcement honeypot?
