cybercrime security threat VoIP reselling US DoJ telecom fraud
The two hackers who were reselling VoIP service have been all over the news this week. Details have been scarce, but after looking at VoIPSA, I saw that someone had posted the link to the US DoJ site where the criminal complaints can be found.

Apparently, Pena used "Fortes Telecom, Inc." and "Miami Tech & Consulting, Inc." for his operations.
