The Tony Stark Address Hack: Mishaal Khan Fooling Credit Bureaus With OSINT
Show notes
A hacker stayed anonymous for years. Mishaal Khan, author of Phantom CISO and creator of Operation Privacy, found him in about an hour using OSINT, open source intelligence, meaning information that's already public and free to find. The case grew into a Department of Justice investigation and a documentary that premiered at Tribeca. Inside: the OSINT method nobody teaches, the voice cloning scam that takes ten seconds, and the mansion address he legally made his own, Tony Stark's.
