US Government released document explaining recent accident when hacker Martin Marsich illegaly accessed video game company’s Electronic Arts accounts. He gained access to 25,000 accounts that allow customers to purchase items for use in video games.

Gained access to 25,000 accounts

According to the affidavit, on March 25, 2018, a video-game company headquartered in the Bay Area discovered that an individual had illegally accessed its internal computer network and granted access to parts of the company’s systems. The intruder, later identified as Marsich, gained access to 25,000 accounts that allow customers to purchase items for use in video games.

Suffered a loss of approximately $324,000

Hacker used some of the information he obtained from the computer system to obtain in-game currency, used to buy and sell in-game items. The complaint further alleges Marsich sold access to the on-line game on black-market websites. After making the discovery of the intrusion, the company allegedly closed the stolen accounts and suffered a loss of approximately $324,000.

$750,000 in cryptocurrency for bail

Marsich was arrested at San Francisco International Airport. Magistrate Judge Corley ordered Marsich released to a half-way house on the condition that he post the equivalent of $750,000 in cryptocurrency such as bitcoin or ethereum for bail. This is one of the biggest and only few cases when cryptocurrency is asked for bail.
