A website dedicated to naming ICE and Border Patrol employees is coming under a “prolonged and sophisticated” cyber attack after the Daily Beast revealed it planned to make public 4,500 names of federal immigration staff.
The founder of ICE List said the website was overwhelmed by malicious web traffic originating in Russia after the Beast reported that a huge cache of personal IDs had been leaked to the site by an alleged Department of Homeland Security whistleblower.
The Direct Denial of Service (DDOS) assault, which began on Tuesday evening and is still ongoing at the time of publication, saw a huge number of IPs simultaneously access the website of ICE List, a self-styled “accountability initiative.”
This has successfully overloaded the ICE List’s servers and is preventing people from accessing the site. The timing coincided with ICE List founder Dominick Skinner telling the Daily Beast he would make public the first tranche of names in the dataset, which was leaked following the shooting by an ICE agent of mom Renee Nicole Good.
Yeah this probably should have been archived offline immediately and then spread around to decentralize it.
This is a scam. No one ever saw this list and it would have been trivial to distribute if that was ever the intent.
I saw the list yesterday for a few minutes. Then it crashed.
Why do you think they didn’t just distribute a 50kb CSV file so that everyone on earth could have it today?
You should ask them.

Then don’t believe me. No skin off my ass.
Good luck with all the IPs your gathering into this honeypot. Hope folks had their VPNs turned on when they tried it.
For anyone else reading this, here is what is happening:
Post fake list.
No one can get it, but thousands of people try.
Oops, we got hacked.
Two months later.
Hey, why is MY house the one that got visited by ICE?
you’re
I’m not American
How ironic this post is while you’re asking me to post screenshots of the list. Jesus dude…
I saw the list. It contains names, photos, linked in profiles, job position in ICE, etc.
EDIT: I will add, whether this whole thing is fake or not, I saw a list. the website had names, linkedin, etc. This data is completely unverified. I admit it seem a little off. But the website listed did in fact have names and links.
Awesome! Want to share the cached page or anything that you managed to grab while you were there? Even a screen shot?
I’m not fedposting/doxxing federal agents on a public forum, are you a fucking moron?
Ah the ‘Epstein list isn’t real’ phase of denial. How gauche.
Just to be clear, you are equating wanting to actually see proof of this list of ICE agents before accepting that its real with denying the Epstein files. Are you OK, dude?
If you can’t/don’t want to see the parallels, you’re even more ignorant than you present.
I’d call you an ostrich but that’s rude to the birds.
You can’t place ads next to a CSV file.
The site has no ads
Exactly, and that’s the best-case scenario.
It’s back up. It’s not a scam.
And can we maybe not continually, without fail, hit ourselves in the face with a crowbar, because something positive isn’t perfect?
