New Zealand Computer Crime King Caught

Police in New Zealand finally caught the eighteen-year-old male who was behind a lot of recent criminal activity involving computer fraud. He is now working with authorities to help with various investigations.

This young man, who had the alias of "AKILL," was responsible for the loss of more than 26 million dollars in New Zealand currency as a result of computer crime.

The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation claimed that AKILL was the man behind a vicious "botnet" that had over a million computers infected with a serious virus. The virus allowed AKILL to gain access to private data and records on countless machines. AKILL is also being accused of causing a serious server crash that recently happened at the University of Pennsylvania.

Electronic Crime Lab Manager Maarten Kleinjtes from the New Zealand Police mentioned that AKILL created a program that was being sold to other computer criminals who wished to cause electronic havoc around the world.

"He hires his services out to others, who make use of that botnet," Kleinjtes mentioned to Radio New Zealand.

"If another cyber criminal wants to do an attack – in this case on the Pennsylvania University computers – then the botherder instructs all the machines that have been infected...to all at the same time attack these computers in Pennsylvania."
