A Sydney man has been arrested after allegedly selling hundreds of thousands of compromised account details for subscription streaming services, including for Netflix, Hulu and music streaming service Spotify – raking in about $212,000 ($300,000 AUD) in profit in the process. The Australian Federal Police (AFP) were tipped off to the 21-year-old malefactor’s alleged activities by the FBI last May, as part of an investigation into a now-defunct account generator website called WickedGen.com. He was arrested on Tuesday and his premises raided, according to an AFP statement.
