Sorry to say but I'm not sure how successful you'll be here. Hackers don't often congregate or act in groups from what I've seen, and if they do, it's probably just a small group of friends or siblings screwing around for the hell of it and not some highly coordinated act designed to trick the community into thinking they're some elite group of players (not saying this doesn't happen, it's just probably quite rare here). Logistical and morality issues aside, there might not be much for you to infiltrate hacker-wise. Clans, maybe.
I don't know how things operate behind the scenes here, but be careful with how you collect and present your evidence. Back when I moderated a network we had problems with people reporting certain things because the evidence could've been very easily faked and there was no way to verify it on our end (e.g. a user could edit a screenshot to show that someone said something they didn't actually say in game, but at least the server logs could be used to verify if the evidence was solid or not). At the end of the day there wasn't much we could do sometimes. It was kinda sad, honestly.
