Hackers threaten to expose Jeffrey Epstein's Florida driving record unless paid

A hacker collective known as ShinyHunters uploaded a screenshot they say is Jeffrey Epstein’s driving record from Florida’s Driver and Vehicle Information Database (DAVID) to a dark-web leak site, attaching a demand for an undisclosed ransom. The alleged record lists Epstein’s ID number, home address, physical description, Social Security number and several vehicles, marked with a red "Sexual Offender" label and noted as expired.

ShinyHunters warned that the files would be made public if their payment request is ignored. The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, which manages the DAVID system, has not commented on the alleged intrusion. This incident arrives days after a separate hacker group began selling access to 170 million identity documents, including over 153 million driver’s licenses, on the dark web under the name Nexus, but any connection between the two breaches remains uncertain.
