The Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation has approved the indictment in the criminal case against Denis Priymachenko, Alexander Aseev, Alexander Basov, Dmitry Kolpakov, Vladislav Patyuk and Anton Tolmachev.

They are accused of committing crimes under Part 2 of Article 187 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (illegal turnover of payment funds) and Part 3 of Article 273 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (creation, use and distribution of malicious computer programs).

According to investigators, since the end of 2017, these individuals used computer programs to bypass the security features of foreign online stores websites and gain access to their databases. Then, using malicious special code, they copied the necessary bank card details and placed them on their remote servers.

As a result, members of the hacker group illegally seized information about almost 160 thousand payment cards of foreign citizens, after which they sold them through shadow Internet sites.

The criminal case was sent to the Sovetsky District Court of Ryazan.
