Two Russian nationals have been given long prison terms for their roles in a global computer hacking ring that stole more than 160 million credit card numbers and cost its victims hundreds of millions of dollars.
The Justice Department calls it one of the biggest data breach schemes in U.S. history.
A federal judge in New Jersey sentenced Vladimir Drinkman, 37, to 12 years behind bars and Dmitriy Smilianets, 34, to more than four years in prison.
Three suspected co-conspirators are still at large.
U.S. prosecutors accuse the five defendants of stealing names, passwords and credit and debit card numbers from corporate computer networks, and selling that information to others around the world.
Those who bought the stolen information encoded it on magnetic strips on plastic cards and used the cards in ATMs and other devices to buy goods and services.
The defendants used a number of methods to hide their crimes.
The Justice Department said corporations and consumers lost hundreds of millions of dollars. They say the losses suffered by those whose identities were stolen are "immeasurable."
两名俄罗斯公民参加一个全球电脑黑客团伙,盗取了1亿6000万张信用卡的号码,给受害者造成数亿美元的损失,被美国联邦法院判处长期监禁。
美国司法部说,这是美国历史上最大规模的数据失窃案件之一。
新泽西州的一位联邦法官判处37岁的弗拉基米尔·德林克曼12年徒刑,判处34岁的德米特里·斯米利亚涅茨4年以上徒刑。
还有3名同谋嫌疑人仍然在逃。
美国检察官指控这5名被告从公司电脑网络盗取名字、密码以及信用卡和借记卡的号码,然后在世界范围出售。
购买了这些信息的人把信息植入信用卡或借记卡的磁条,然后在自动柜员机提款或通过其它方式购买产品和服务。
这些被告用多种方法掩盖他们的犯罪行为。
美国司法部说,很多公司和消费者损失了数亿美元,而身份被盗者遭受的痛苦难以估量。
