دزدی از دیتاسنترهای هوش مصنوعی، سارقان را ثروتمند کرد

Organized crime rings targeting shipments destined for artificial intelligence datacenters have inflicted tens of millions of dollars in losses on technology developers. Criminal networks have been staging deliberate highway accidents to force security escort vehicles off the road and hijack valuable server processing hardware during transit.

According to findings by NBC, cargo thefts involving datacenter equipment have accumulated over $100 million in damages since June 2026. Dozens of major heists have been documented across the United States as surging global demand for high-performance computing infrastructure drives up the black-market value of these components.

In one notable incident, a semi-truck transporting server gear bound for Fayetteville, Georgia, vanished after a vehicle intentionally collided with an undercover police escort car. Law enforcement later recovered the empty trailer in a parking lot, while its $13 million cargo had been completely looted. A comparable scenario unfolded with a $10 million shipment heading to Texas, where attackers not only targeted the protective escort but also disabled satellite tracking devices.

Private cargo theft investigator Gerardo Pachuca noted that the collisions were calculated operations rather than random accidents, with perpetrators deliberately targeting shipments to capture the valuable hardware. Risk management experts describe stealing these shipments as comparable to making off with bars of pure gold, noting that the sheer value and ease of moving specialized server parts make them highly attractive targets for modern criminal rings.
