Romanian Court Sentences Vladuz for eBay Hacking Incident

A hacker who repeatedly breached eBay's servers has been given a three-year suspended sentence by a Romanian court. "The 23-year old Vlad Duiculescu - who went by the handle 'Vladuz' - has created havoc during his repeated break-ins," writes Help Net Security's Zeljka Zorz. "He occasionally impersonated eBay employees on the company's discussion forums, and posted names and emails of eBay customers."
