Two Defendants Convicted on All Counts for International Computer Hacking and Securities Fraud Scheme
Defendants Were Part of a Scheme that Made $30 Million in Profits by Trading on Press Releases Stolen by Hackers from Major Newswire Companies
Vitaly Korchevsky, a former hedge fund manager, and Vladislav Khalupsky, a securities trader, were convicted today in federal court in Brooklyn of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, conspiracy to commit securities fraud and computer intrusion, conspiracy to commit money laundering and two counts of securities fraud in connection with their roles in an international scheme to hack into three business newswires and steal yet-to-be published press releases containing non-public financial information, which was then used to make trades that generated approximately $30 million in illegal profits. The verdicts followed a four-week trial before United States District Judge Raymond J. Dearie. When sentenced, each defendant faces a maximum of 20 years’ imprisonment.
“The defendants teamed up with cybercriminal co-conspirators to hack pre-distribution press releases and then traded in the stock market based on that stolen information, making massive profits as a result,” stated United States Attorney Donoghue. “Today’s verdict sends a powerful message that this Office, together with our law enforcement partners, will work tirelessly to disrupt any scheme, no matter how sophisticated, that threatens the integrity and fairness of our markets.” Mr. Donoghue expressed his grateful appreciation to the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey (USAO-DNJ), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for their significant cooperation and assistance in this case.
“Conspiring with hackers overseas, Korchevsky and Khalupsky worked swiftly to trade on stolen press releases, illegally profiting millions of dollars,” stated FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Sweeney. “Such a massive criminal operation called for massive cover-ups, but their attempts to cover their tracks were done in vain. Devoting much time to the execution of this sneaky scheme, upon sentencing, the defendants will now rightfully face time in prison.”
