Here is the news from Reuters:
Monday for allegedly stealing more than 130 million credit and
debit card numbers in what U.S. authorities said they believe
is the largest hacking and identity theft case ever
prosecuted.
Albert Gonzalez, a former government informant already in
jail in connection with hacking cases, and two unnamed Russians
were indicted on charges related to five corporate data
breaches from 2006 to 2008.
Card numbers were stolen in those breaches from credit-card
processor Heartland Payment Systems and retail chains
7-Eleven Inc and Hannaford Brothers Co, prosecutors said.
The men targeted two other corporations, the U.S.
attorney's office in New Jersey said in the statement, without
naming those companies.
Heartland Payment Systems and Hannaford Brothers had
previously and separately acknowledged the breaches, but the
scope of the fraud had not been known.
Authorities also for the first time tied those cases to
Gonzalez, who was arrested last year on suspicion of hacking
into a restaurant chain's payment system.
Attorneys for Gonzalez were not available for comment.
