A Russian man called one of the world’s most prolific ransomware operators was arrested in Canada. When cops raided his suburban home they caught him at a table in the garage with an open laptop and restrained him before he could lock his computer. Access to that gave information used by FBI agents to request his extradition. Let me tell you about it. ** TAP "THANKS" BUTTON TO HELP ME OR JOIN ME ON PATREON: http://patreon.com/TheMobReporter The Mob Reporter here with dramatic news of an attack targeting LockBit, the world’s most prolific and notorious ransomware gang operating on a global stage, from New Jersey and Toronto to Paris and Berlin, from Jakarta and Kyiv to New Delhi and Beijing. The probe was sparked by the arrest last year of two other alleged LockBite affiliates in Kyiv, Ukraine. That helped bring police to a bedroom community north of Toronto to search the home of an alleged colleague. They arrested Mikhail Vasiliev, 33, a dual national of Russia and Canada. They seized documents allegedly linked to LockBit, a Bitcoin wallet allegedly linked to a recent ransom, and two guns. He was arrested for the guns and released on bail while the U.S. Department of Justice got its paperwork in order for its arrest warrant and extradition request. He was then re-arrested and remains in custody pending a court hearing. But that was not the only weird thing about the policing on this file. Watch the video to see what else is odd about it. --- В Канаде был арестован россиянин, которого называют одним из самых плодовитых операторов программ-вымогателей в мире. Когда копы ворвались в его загородный дом, они поймали его за столом в гараже с открытым ноутбуком и связали, прежде чем он смог заблокировать свой компьютер. Доступ к этому дал информацию, используемую агентами ФБР для запроса его экстрадиции. Позвольте мне рассказать вам об этом. --- У Канаді заарештували росіянина, якого називають одним із найактивніших у світі операторів програм-вимагачів. Коли копи ввірвалися в його будинок у передмісті, вони спіймали його за столом у гаражі з відкритим ноутбуком і стримали, перш ніж він встиг заблокувати свій комп’ютер. Доступ до нього дав інформацію, використану агентами ФБР для запиту його екстрадиції. Дозвольте мені розповісти вам про це. --- CREDITS: Music is Creep by Emmit Fenn (remix by The Mob Reporter) // Back To The Future by Ofshane; Map animation created using Google Earth Studio; Some house exterior photos from Google Streetview; Hacker videos and Toronto skyline by Videvo from Videvo; Toronto gate by Ahmed Raza Khan at Pexels; LockBit screen shots by Cluster25 and Trend Micro; Bitcoin in thumbnail is by Jorge Franganillo https://www.flickr.com/photos/franganillo/50799812983/, CC BY 2.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=113283593 ~ The Mob Reporter is a professional journalist bringing you real-life mob, police and true crime news and educational videos. ~ PLEASE SUBSCRIBE: http://www.youtube.com/user/themobreporter?sub_confirmation=1 ~ Please subscribe to my other channels: • Crime Watch: https://www.youtube.com/CrimeWatchWorld • Crime in Italy: https://www.youtube.com/CrimeInItaly ~ To read my written journalism: https://nationalpost.com/author/ahumphreys/ Please like, share, comment and subscribe.
