He has been tracked down by secret services of different countries for more than a year.

A hacker named Satoshi, who has been tracked down by the secret services of different countries for more than a year, was caught in Belarus, reports euroradio.by.

The man who was hiding under the nickname of Satoshi is not related to the invention of bitcoins, but he made a great fuss among the special services of many countries. He lives in Babruisk with his parents in a regular apartment. The man stole data from well-known companies and then sold it.

Satoshi attacked banking services, payment systems, online stores in all continents. He formed a million base of stolen accounts. He could sell one account for 10 cents to ten dollars, depending on the popularity of the resource. His customers were Internet fraudsters.

Fraudulent transactions worth about $ 5 million were committed through the accounts that the hacker sold to attackers. In the US alone, he committed more than 300 thousand cyberattacks. Amazon and Western Union were under attack.

The young man graduated from high school in his time, did not study anywhere and did not work, but at the same time attended nightclubs and casinos, bought elite alcohol. Over the past two months, Satoshi earned about 60 thousand dollars. For all the time of criminal activity, his estimated incomes begin with a figure with six zeros. Satoshi is now 30 years old. Investigators believe that he acted not alone and are looking for other defendants in the case.

As for the possible punishment, the cybercriminal faces up to two years in prison. The court will take into account the fact that Satoshi immediately agreed to cooperate with the investigation.
