Mir Vahid Hassantabar, operating under the widely known alias Vahid Online, has allegedly been compromised and targeted in a severe doxxing campaign by the Handala Hack Team. In a highly politicized and aggressive manifesto, the hacktivist group claimed the popular channel operator is a mercenary executing anti-Iranian and separatist agendas under the direct management of Sima Shine, a former Mossad deputy and current senior Israeli security official. The group’s extensive allegations also implicated his brother, Navid Hassantabar, accusing him of conducting cyber sabotage against Iranian banking IT infrastructure during the “12-day war” in collaboration with Mossad before fleeing to England. Escalating the severity of the physical and digital threat, the Handala Hack Team claimed that the geographical coordinates of Vahid Online’s team have been identified by the “Axis of Resistance” and targeted with missile strikes. The group further threatened the imminent arrest of hundreds of alleged internal collaborators, warning that the leak of the channel’s subscriber data is only the beginning of their retribution.
According to the actor, the allegedly compromised data includes:
-
Victim’s full name (Mir Vahid Hassantabar)
-
Father’s name
-
Place of birth and date of birth
-
National ID number and birth certificate number
