UK Arrests Teens Linked to Scattered Spider TfL Hack

🚨 Two teenagers have been arrested in the UK on suspicion of involvement in the August 2024 cyberattack against Transport for London; authorities say the suspects are believed to be members of the Scattered Spider collective. The National Crime Agency is prosecuting both on computer misuse and fraud-related charges, while U.S. prosecutors also filed charges against one suspect tied to multiple intrusions and extortion schemes. TfL reported that the breach disrupted internal systems and later confirmed customer data, including names and contact details, was compromised, causing operational disruption and financial losses.
