The feds had an inkling who was stealing credit card IDs from ISPs and banks, so they invited their suspect in Russia to the U.S. to interview for a job. The job was bogus, but the handcuffs were real. FBI agents used the hacking "audition" to get his password and then hacked into a computer network in Russia to download evidence against him. Busted! The 27-year-old Russian wrongdoer will spend three years behind bars and pony up nearly $700,000 in damages.
