RE: Re: [asterisk-biz] More re VoIP Fraud

[Frank]

Edwin Andres Pena charged customers more than $1 million to route calls for them, according to FBI complaints made public with Pena's arrest in Florida. Pena paid $20,000 to hacker Robert Moore, of Spokane, Wash., according to court papers. At least 15 Internet phone companies were victimized, with one suffering as much as $300,000 in lost fees, prosecutors said. Pena allegedly was able to secretly route 500,000 calls through a Newark-based provider identified in the complaint as "N.T.P.," which appears to be Net2Phone. Messages seeking comment from the company, and its corporate parent, IDT Corp., were not immediately returned Wednesday.     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Taht Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2006 4:58 PM To: Commercial and Business-Oriented Asterisk Discussion Subject: [!!
