Hello folks,
I think I saw this yesterday, but I don’t remember.
The article talks about a member of this gang who basicly worked with victims to get them to pay by negociating with them and coming up with a price they’re willing to pay.
This gang is first known as Conti, and started in 2021 after Conti was shut down.
The crimes mentioned could see a 20 year prison sentence or a fine of up to 500,000 or higher for property thefts.
I wonder if this also means that they get the 5 years for the cyber part too like most end up getting for these things?
U.S. charges Karakurt extortion gang’s “cold case” negotiator i the article. I guess we’ll see what this means if we hear more.
Thanks so much for reading!
