In August 2024, accounts attributed to Anonymous circulated an alleged conversation between Nicolás Maduro, Vladimir Padrino López, and Diosdado Cabello, along with a resolution from the Ministry of Defense regarding changes in command. Fake News Hunters documented that the conversation had an uncertain origin, could have been fabricated, and did not prove an interception or intrusion. No independent public evidence was found that the MPPD website had been taken offline or that a data exfiltration had been verified.
