New Zealand hacker jailed in computer fraud and blackmail case

Thomasz Grygoruk attracted the attention of the FBI after stealing personal information from thousands of people over the web in a five year spree. The 22-year-old used a combination of Trojan horses and fake banking websites to steal information such as credit card numbers and PINs from unsuspecting internet users. The hacker would then create ATM cards and steal up to NZ $300,000 (US $233,000) from cash machines. He also attempted to blackmail an American teacher in Pennsylvania to the tune of NZ $13,000.”]
