LEARNING FROM OTHERS’
MISTAKES. SABU BECAME FBI
INFORMANT AND BETRAYED
JEREMY HAMMOND
We are continuing the subject of how others were taken down after Sabu was
compromised and started cooperating with the FBI. According to this article.

“The day after Christmas, sup_g had another online chat about the Stratfor hack
and about some 30,000 credit card numbers that had been taken from the company.
His interlocutor,CW-1, engaged in a bit of gallows humor about what might
happen should they all get caught.
But the raid had, in fact, already happened. CW-1 was “Sabu,” a top Anon/LulzSec
hacker who was in real life an unemployed 28-year old living in New York City
public housing. His sixth-floor apartment had been visited by the FBI in June 2011,
and Sabu had been arrested and “turned.” For months, he had been an FBI
informant, watched 24 hours a day by an agent and using a government issued
laptop that logged everything he did.”
So we see here Sabu is chatting with a user sup_g to try and engage him about the hacks
that took place.
“Sabu suddenly addresses sup_g by a new name, “anarchaos.” It would turn out
that sup_g went by many names, including “anarchaos,” “burn,” “yohoho,”
“POW,” “tylerknowsthis,” and “crediblethreat.”
CW-1: if I get raided anarchaos your job is to cause havok in my honor
CW-1: <3
CW-1: sup_g:
@sup_g: it shall be so
Normally, the attempt to link his various names would have raised the hacker’s
guard; as he confided to Sabu, someone else had once tried to link the names
“yohoho” and “burn,” but the hacker “never answered… I think he picked up
some language similarities I’ve worked with [REDACTED] on other ops in the
past.” But this was Sabu, a sort of hacker demigod in the world of Anonymous. If
you couldn’t trust him, who could you trust? Sabu had even provided a server to
store the stolen Statfor data, so he couldn’t be a fed (in reality, he had done so at
the FBI’s direction).”
And more details on how they looked through copious amounts of logs to correlate this
