"We found out how to make way more expensive and insurance surely accepts this; we restart negotiations at $8M let the negotiator and insurance know," read a post from ShinyHunters (via a screenshot by Hackread), published on the notorious hacking forum Breach Forums.

According to ShinyHunters, the group has obtained a total of 193 million ticket barcodes, valued at over $22.6 billion in total. This includes 440,000 tickets for Taylor Swift's ongoing Eras Tour, as well as 30 million more for 65,000 other events.

It's unclear exactly when Live Nation purportedly offered to pay the $1 million ransom, or whether it actually happened at all. Ticketmaster has denied ShinyHunter's claim, saying that the company never agreed to pay a ransom and did not offer the hackers any money.
