Alleged Cybercrime Kingpin Who Tried To Steal $100 Million From 44,000 PCs Charged


The FBI is still seeking five Russians in its investigation into the profitable GozNym cybercrime crew. The U.S. also unsealed an indictment charging ten members for being part of the GozNym crew. Those include the alleged developer of the GozNym malware, Vladimir Gorin, who not only coded it but leased it to other criminals. The GozNym crew were allegedly spread across Eastern Europe in a prime example of how modern, online gangs operate. Professor Alan Woodward, a cybersecurity expert from the University of Surrey in the U.K., said the arrests could well make an impact, even if the GozNym crew had disbanded in 2016.
