After claiming to have stolen 170,000 tickets for Taylor Swift’s ERAS Tour, the hacker group Sp1d3rHunters today announced they have distributed over 30,000 more tickets for high-profile events.
The allegedly leaked tickets today include events for:
Sp1d3rHunters, known for their illicit activities in the cybercrime world, posted a detailed message on a dark forum claiming they had breached Ticketmaster’s security.

Current Situation and Authenticity of the Breach
At present, we cannot precisely confirm the authenticity of the breach, as Ticketmaster has not yet released an official statement on their website regarding the incident. However, the scope of Sp1d3rHunters’ claims and the potential damage to the mentioned events make this news particularly concerning.
Implications and Next Steps
If the claims prove true, Ticketmaster will face a huge task in restoring the security of its tickets and protecting its customers from potential fraud. Emergency measures are likely to be adopted to invalidate the leaked tickets and issue new ones.
Although there are no official confirmations yet, the possibility of a breach of this magnitude raises serious concerns about Ticketmaster’s systems’ security. We urge readers to stay updated and regularly check Ticketmaster’s website for any official announcements.
Note: This article should be considered as an intelligence source and not as confirmed information.
We await further developments and confirmations from Ticketmaster and the event organizers involved. As usual, we welcome a statement from the company should they wish to provide us with updates on the matter. We will be happy to publish such information with a specific article highlighting the issue.
RHC will monitor the situation and publish further news on the blog if there are substantial updates. If there are individuals with knowledge of the facts who wish to provide information anonymously, they can use the whistleblower’s encrypted email.
