Two men plead guilty to hacking 150 Subway stores

Written By Bersemangat on Rabu, 19 September 2012 | 02.56

Two Romanian men reportedly pled guilty to working with others to hack into point-of-sale terminals at more than 150 Subway stores in the U.S. to steal credit card data from more than 146,000 accounts between 2009 and 2011.

Iulian Dolan, 28, and Cezar Iulian Butu, 27, entered guilty pleas Monday in federal court to one count of conspiracy to commit computer fraud, according to Ars Technica.

Dolan also pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy to commit credit card fraud and has agreed to spend seven years in prison. He admitted helping the alleged ringleader of the hacking group, Adrian-Tiberiu Opera, to scan the target computers, crack the passwords and install keystroke loggers that would grab data from cards as they were swiped and PIN data keyed in, according to the plea agreement.

In a separate plea agreement, Butu admitted to asking Opera for stolen data. Butu has agreed to a 21-month prison sentence. Opera is in custody awaiting trial in New Hampshire, the report says.

CNET has contacted the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Hampshire and will update this post with their comment.
