Where are you seeing that? The top comment is the dumb one about hornets.
- celticninja 11y agoCtrl+f junto The really interesting part is the last paragraph: In a related case, Aleksandr Andreevich Panin, aka Gribodemon, 26, of Tver, Russia; and Hamza Bendelladj, aka Bx1, 27, of Tizi Ouzou, Algeria, pleaded guilty on Jan. 28, 2014, and June 26, 2015, respectively, in the Northern District of Georgia in connection with developing, distributing and controlling SpyEye, a malicious banking trojan designed to steal unsuspecting victims' financial and personally identifiable information. Bendelladj and Panin advertised SpyEye to other members on Darkode. Note that they were arrested in Georgia. Do they mean the country of Georgia, enemy of the Russians and friend of the US? Or do they mean the state of Georgia in the US? Either way, the US has them in custody, which suggests an arrest on US soil (come visit the US trap style) or a foreign arrest and extradition. I'm guessing by the tone of that last paragraph that this is how the FBI got in. They flipped them and offered them a pkea bargain. We'll find out at sentencing.
