SOLDIERX.COM Nobody Can Stop Information Insemination

According to his Phrack prophile, punk loves computers and drugs. He hates white-hats. He is/was at some point a member of: The SYNDICATE, 2l8, Project CASSOULET, formerly Ac1dB1tch3z.

Wrote "Hacker Defender", a rootkit for Windows NT/XP/2000/2003, which he stopped working on in 2006.
During Hacker Defender's time, it was one of the preferred applications for showing windows "it's still vulnerable".

Oleg Nikolaenko of Moscow, also know by his online nickname “Docent”, is thought to be the man behind the “Mega-D” bot network of 500,000 infected computers. The botnet sends out millions of spam messages on behalf of scam artists selling fake prescriptions and Rolex watches. According to the FBI, Oleg was responsible for 1/3 of the world's spam as of 12-03-2010.

According to The Smoking Gun, Nikolaenko is the first person to be named in conjunction with the operation and creation of “Mega-D”. FBI investigators have managed to collect financial records from Nikolaenko showing that he had earned nearly $500,000 over a period of six months from fellow spammer Lance Atkinson.

Nikolaenko’s botnet was taken out in 2009 by FireEye, a network security company, which was able to identify the affected computers being hijacked by “Mega D”.

Tuc started out in the BBS world in July 1980 when he first got his modem, a Novation Acoustic. In August of 1981, Connection-80 of Stony Point, his first
bulletin board, was launched into the BBS world. It started on a TRS-80 Model I, Epson MX-80 printer, 2 single density disk drives, a Novation Acoustic
modem, and a home built auto-answer module. At the time, he didn't even know what phreaking was, so it was a general public board. A software switch to RACS III occurred on January 10, 1982, running until January 10, 1985. The hard drive arrived a few months ago to build it to the board that it currently is.

Members of the elite world which he has met include King Blotto, Lex Luthor, Dr. Who, Crimson Death, The Videosmith, Jester Sluggo, The Sprinter, Mark
Tabas, BIOC Agent 003, Agrajag, Telenet Bob, Big Brother, Cheshire Catalyst, Egyptian Lover, Magnetic Surfer, Paul Muad'Dib, Lord Digital, Sir Knight, 2600
Editor (Emanuelle Goldstein [sp.]), Susan Thunder, Modem Rider, Sharp Razor, Hertz Tone, The Flying Avocado, and The Ace.

His phreak experience began in March of 1982 through the new board's software having a section called "Phreak-80". People started calling and paying attention to it, including one caller by the name of Susan Thunder, which is how he personally began to phreak. She lead him around the scene which included the infamous 8 BBS and to other people such as Larry Kelly. Some of the memorable phreak boards he was on included 8 BBS, MOM, OSUNY, The Private 414 Board (as in THE 414's), Blottoland, The Connection, L.O.D., Plovernet, Pirate 80, Sherwood Forest I, II, and III, WOPR, IROC, Pirate Trek, Pirate's I/O, Datanet, Stalag 13, A.I. Labs, and Hell Phrozen Over. He gives credit for his phreak knowledge to Susan Thunder and the people that she put him in touch with.

Tuc's work is as a computer and communications security freelance consultant. He's done lots of programming in basic for the TRS-80, and assembly language for the IBM 370.

Tuc does hack and phreak, but with his employer's consent. Tuc attends the TAP meetings in New York occasionally, but in the past he was a regular. He's attended all Phreak-Con's, he was an assistant editor of the original TAP, and was a pioneer in the phreak world before blue boxing and Alliance Teleconferencing was common knowledge. Besides that, he was the one on West 57th Street labeled "Scott Jeffrey Ellentuch". He was hard to find on that particular program.

Tuc has been involved with various groups in his lifetime including (in the order that he joined them) The Warelords, The Knights of Shadow, Apple Mafia, and, at the same time as Apple Mafia, Fargo 4A.

Crimson Death started out in the BBS world in 1984 with a public board, Spirit World, which was run on an Apple //e, 2 floppies, GBBS, and 300 baud. He had originally gotten his Apple computer in January of 1984. Then, on one memorable day, The Videosmith logged onto his board and they became friends. In February of 1985, he started phreaking. When his 10 meg Sider
came, he started Hell Phrozen Over as a private bulletin board system. Death called a few memorable boards, including the Army BBS, Shadowland, The Missing Link, The Labyrinth, as well as his own. His phreak teacher was The Videosmith.

Robb goes to a public school and has skipped a grade, so he is currently one grade ahead of his time. His phreaking is unknown at school except to a few. He considers himself pretty well versed in programming, and from the way his board runs, I would agree. CD's girlfriend is The Silver Fox, (note the word "Fox") that he met on Datanet, and popular opinion says she is REALLY decent looking.

Crimson Death does no hacking right now, but in the future when he gets a bit of free time, he plans on learning about it. Mentioned earlier was his involvement in Phreak Klass 2600. Red Devil has taken it down, and they are looking for a replacement board, Phreak Klass II. Death has met various phreaks, old and new, and those of who really stuck out in his mind were: The Videosmith, Mark Tabas, TUC, Telenet Bob, The Sprinter, and Dr. Who. He listed others too, but he felt that these were the "mentionables". Just thought I'd let a few out there know. Hell Phrozen Over is co-sysoped by Silicon Swindler, and the Phreak Adviser is The Videosmith, a 300/1200 baud, 10 meg system. He was, in the past, in PhD, which stands for Phreak/Hack Destroyers. This eventually evolved into Camorra. PhD was run by The Executioner (301), members included Red Devil, Silver Sabre, and Scorpion among others.

Wizard of Arpanet started as an average BBS caller who discovered Central Processing Unit (a local board to him), and discovered numbers on the board that turned out to be Sprint dial-ups. The CPU Sysop informed him of what to do and he started calling national BBSs. Boards that helped him to advance include the Twilight Zone, OSUNY, Dragon's Lair, and Delta BBS. Wizard organized various groups which included (from earliest to most recent): PHA (Phreakers and Hackers of America) - (included Deep Throat, Phreak King, and Psycho Killer), The Inner Circle (1st one) (included Shockwave Rider, and Satan Knight aka Redrum), and The 2nd Inner Circle (included The Cracker, Mr. America, Napoleon Bonapart, Stainless Steal Rat, Big Brother, Mr. Xerox, Bootleg, Maxwell Wilke, Mandrake The Magician, and Zaphod Beeblebrox).

Eric got the number to Arpanet from Dark Dante, and got on the MIT Research System from looking through TAC News. One night he got like 50-60 accounts on the Unix and changed all of the passwords to WIZARD.

He started on his way to hackerdom in early 1983 when He bought his first modem, a Networker 300 baud (What a gem!!) to use in his Apple II+. He asked the salesperson for the numbers of the local boards (at the time there were a whole 3 here, and one was an IBM users group board). Well, it just so happened one was an Apple board run on an old version of Networks II, with a sysop who had been known to rip off a local extender here and there. After chatting with him for a while he realized Modem Master was one of those eager-to-learn Jr. High kids, so he put him in touch with several other users of his board. Well, one of those was Simon Templar, who would later be the sysop of the Pearly Gates.

Simon gave him his first code (to an 800 number owned by LDX), and the numbers of some boards where he might pick up some more additional knowledge (IC's Socket, AT&T Phone Center, and Sherwood Forest). Well, after pestering just about anybody that seemed to know ANYTHING, he was on his way. Soon, he was frequenting at least one board in almost every area code. He had also learned the advantage of scanning exchanges, he found several local PBXes and a Sprint indial that nobody seemed to known about. That facilitated his "habit" even more and he then found a little Diversi-Dial dubbed "Beandial." That was where he really got off the ground. It was frequented by many knowledgeable phreaks, so between that and all of the BBSes he was on, he had a wealth of knowledge to look to all at his fingertips when he had a question.

Beandial also left him with several good friends, the most notable being Lord Kahz. It also put him in touch with someone rather well known, King Blotto.

Memorable bulletin boards that he has been on include; The Pearly Gates, AT&T Phone Center, Blottoland (even though he was only actually on during the last phase of its life), and Bean Dial, plus all the normal ones that everybody and his brother were on.

Ax Murderer started phreaking and hacking in 1983 through the help of some of his friends. Members of the Hack/Phreak world which he has met include Control C, Bad Subscript, and The Timelord. Some of the memorable phreak/hack BBS's he was/is on included WOPR, OSUNY, Plovernet, Pirate 80, Shadow Spawn, Metal Shop Private, Sherwood Forest (213), IROC, Dragon Fire, and Shadowland. While he is a little more interested in Phreaking than hacking, he is able to code in 'C', Basic, Pascal, and Machine Language.

a computer hacker and computer criminal who is accused of masterminding the combined credit card theft and subsequent reselling of more than 170 million card and ATM numbers from 2005 through 2007—the biggest such fraud in history.
Gonzalez and his accomplices used SQL injection techniques to create malware backdoors on several corporate systems in order to launch packet sniffing (specifically, ARP Spoofing) attacks which allowed him to steal computer data from internal corporate networks.
During his spree he was said to have to thrown himself a $75,000 birthday party and complained about having to count $340,000 by hand after his currency-counting machine broke. Gonzalez stayed at lavish hotels but his formal homes were modest.[1]
Gonzalez had three federal indictments:

May 2008 in New York for the Dave & Busters case (trial schedule September 2009)
May 2008 in Massachusetts for the TJ Maxx case (trial scheduled early 2010)
August 2009 in New Jersey in connection with the Heartland Payment case.

On March 25, 2010, Gonzalez was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison.
