An operation conducted by the Federal Criminal Police Office in Germany (BKA) and the Frankfurt cybercrime combating unit (ZIT) led to the seizure of the infrastructure of the darknet marketplace Nemesis Market in Germany and Lithuania.

The Nemesis Market has been active since 2021, its offerings included illegal drugs and narcotics, stolen data and credit cards, as well as a selection of cybercrime services such as ransomware , phishing or DDoS attacks.
The Nemesis Market recently reached over 150,000 users and over 1,100 seller accounts registered worldwide. The investigation revealed that almost 20 percent were seller accounts from Germany.
The Nemesis Market marketplace currently displays the following banner informing visitors that the site has been seized by law enforcement.
