Heartland Hacker to be Sentenced

Prosecutors and Gonzalez’ lawyer were present at a hearing on March 18 to argue sentencing parameters. Albert Gonzalez faces sentencing on the TJX breach, Office Max, DSW and Dave & Busters breaches. Gonzalez turned into a Secret Service informant after they learned of his role as an administrator on a carding site called Shadowcrew. The site, before it was taken down, was one of the underground carding community’s leading forums for selling stolen card data. If he receives the maximum sentence in these cases, the sentences would be carried out concurrently.”]
