There are two types of hacker group names. The first type is “The Icy Black Hand of Death Squadron”, and it’s made up entirely out of script kiddies who only know how to DDoS. The other type is called the “Meow Meow Kitten Cuties”, and are responsible for numerous changes in cybersecurity best practices because they came up with unprecedented attacks.
And there’s a third type. They just keep asking politely for passwords until someone gives it to them.
Ma’am, we have an urgent request. I am acting as a Hexbear representative to contact you. Please DM the nearest Hexbear representative with a copy of your password for password inspection. This is to ensure that recent changes to password length and special character requirements are being met. Thank you for your cooperation.
