London Police Seize 91.46 Bitcoin From Hacker

in #cryptocurrency • 7 years ago

London police have seized 91.46 bitcoin from a prolific computer hacker.
Cybercrime detectives seized the bitcoin from Grant West, 26, who was sentenced to 10 years and 8 months in prison Friday for attacking some 100 companies worldwide, largely using 'phishing' email scams to obtain the financial data.
They recovered a memory card containing approximately 78 million individual usernames and passwords.

I think these usernames could be from various HYIP programs he might be running...
So, all in all a great step towards a clean cryptocurrency environment...

Have a Good Day everybody!!1
