The largest number of defendants ever charged in a cyber-crime case have been indicted in a multinational investigation conducted in the United States and Egypt that uncovered a sophisticated phishing operation that fraudulently collected personal information from thousands of victims that was used to defraud American banks.

Additionally, authorities in Egypt have charged 47 defendants linked to the phishing scheme.
