Report it to the police.
They will get in contact with the hosting platform if any.
If there is no host platform, they are most probably doing it from their own devices and the police will get them through their ip address. BUT...
"What if they use a elite proxy or VPN" you may ask. Same thing here. They contact the proxy or vpn provider and control the traffic until they find the victim's real ip.
Since you're in complete control of the website...
Why won't you just write a short php script that displays the server's ip, etc. Make a backdoor. Work yourself into the network this way.
Attention:
This is illegal! But it's still up to you ;)
Gaming community of mine launched their slick new website with their new "ticket system" where people could put in tickets to get help by volunteers.
2 hours and an approval by one of the admins later I managed to inject forge http request into literally every form on that side. Modify permissions, delete users, edit tickets, put invalid values into every attribute of them... In other words break everything.
Turns out the whole thing was coded as a first time project by a person who has no clue about web development and noone is in charge of anything really. There are no requirements, no beta testing, no version control or backups, but at least they had a hard deadline. 🤣
Still not sure if I wanna fix their shit and do it properly or just enjoy seeing it crash and burn.
