FBI Probes Possible Breach of 153 Million Driver’s Licenses

FBI investigates possible breach exposing up to 170M North American driver's licenses, data sold on Exploit forum via 'Nexus' service, linked to IDScan.net.

The FBI is investigating a potentially massive breach of identity data affecting as many as 170 million North Americans, first reported by Krebs. The 'Nexus' service on the Exploit cybercrime forum claimed to hold over 153 million US and Canadian driver's licenses plus ID cards, travel documents, and medical cards, sourced from an active breach at a major identity verification company. Krebs linked the trove to New Orleans-based IDScan.net, which is investigating. The service went dark shortly after publication; experts warn stolen license data (DOB, address, ID numbers) can't be changed and could enable lifelong identity fraud.

IDScan Confirms Data Breach Following 153 Million Driver’s Licenses Leaked on the Dark Web

IDScan.net confirms a breach after a marketplace advertised over 153 million US and Canadian driver's licenses, possibly exfiltrated continuously for over a year.

The Louisiana identity-verification firm detected unauthorized access on or around September 1, 2026, after the 'Nexus' identity theft service on the Exploit forum began advertising 170M+ people's records, including 153M+ driver's licenses, 10M+ ID cards, 3M+ travel documents, and 579,000 medical cards. Canadian records exceed 1.1 million, and the trove includes commercial licenses, Common Access Cards, and dispensary IDs, with a record for US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reportedly included. Nexus operators claim continuous exfiltration for over a year, with the license count growing by nearly 400,000 in 24 hours, suggesting the intrusion may be active.

Records include high-ranking US officials such as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and timestamps suggest data was captured during car rentals and travel. The FBI's New Orleans field office has launched an official inquiry into the source of the images.
