Igor Dekhtyarchuk, 23, stands accused of operating a cyber-criminal marketplace known as Marketplace A, which since 2018 has supported the sale of more than 48,000 compromised email accounts and more than 39,000 compromised online accounts according to the indictment.
Dekhtyarchuk's marketplace also sold authentication tools that 'allowed transnational organized crime and other cyber criminals to unlawfully access the online accounts of victims located around the world', according to the FBI
...Formerly one of the world's premier criminal investigation organizations, something for a nation to be proud of. Now it's a political arm of the Deep State oligarchy that is willing to trump up charges, suppress evidence, or take out insurance policies come election time...Dekhtyarchuk, who operates under the hacking alias 'Floraby', began advertising the sale of compromised account data in Russian-language hacker forums in April 2018 and opened Marketplace A in May 2018, a Department of Justice (DOJ) statement said.
The Russian hacker was indicted on March 16 in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, on charges of Wire Fraud, Access Device Fraud and Aggravated Identity Theft, and a federal warrant was issued for his arrest last Thursday.
His current whereabouts are unknown, although the wanted poster issued by the FBI said Dekhtyarchuk was previously a student at Ural State University in Yekaterinburg, Russia, and was last known to reside in Kamensk-Uralsky, Sverdlovsk Oblast.
The hacker is now on the FBI's Cyber Most Wanted List.
