Massive Data Breach Exposes Every American's Social Security Numbers

Russian and Kazakhstan nationals were charged with conspiracy for trafficking in unauthorized access devices and the possession of 15 or more unauthorized access devices. The Russian is Pavel Kublitskii; the Kazakhstani is Alexandr Khodyrev.

Soon after, however, the pair began to display an unusually lavish lifestyle, such as opening bank accounts and depositing $50,000, spending $110,000 cash on a new car, and renting a luxury house, all without appearing to be employed.
