Remember that Vietnamese theif who bought IDs from Experian? Plead guilty.
He arranged to buy access to an information agency that bought court records, posing as a private investigator out of Singapore. He had direct access to 200 million records that would allow fraudsters to create perfect identity/credit theft records. The data service he was buying them through was later acquired by Experian and he still siphoned data out of the system for almost a year after that acquisition.
He was arrested when US Secret Service lured him to Guam, posing as an info broker who wanted to buy lots of ID information. In court he plead guilty to what he did, so he's going to American prison for a while.
