From the link:

A metadata picture is emerging of Luigi Mangione as an “inside man” to several “Black Cat” hacks extorting ransoms, fines, and lawsuits from large healthcare claims processors like United Health Group.

Webb is trying to establish a link from Mangione as a black cat hacker all the way to Nancy Piglosi.

more from webbs site: George Webb at Luigi Mangione nearest address that his mother gave for his Missing Persons Report - Hong Kong Trade Office.

Luigi is showing up everywhere “Black Cat” hackers are extorting millions in ransom and stealing millions of health records.

The reward for tracing Luigi Magione’s Black Cat personas, like Mark Rosario, is much better than the meager $50K that the FBI has already offered for the promise to turn in the United Healthcare killer in New York City, Altoona, Pennsylvania. The Black Cat reward is ten million dollars, and the terms for collecting it are much more lenient.

called ransomware an "enormous problem," and says no sector, company, or type of organization is off limits to hackers. There are estimates that global losses from ransom payments exceed $1 billion a year.

I would hate to get hit with a ransomware attack but... $1B is peanuts on a global scale. I truly thought this was a 10-100X larger problem.

The criminals should pray they are all caught before vigilantes figure out how to track them down. Any of them get doxxed and they will not be long for this world.
