On Sunday, the New York Times published an article about Evgeniy M. Bogachev, describing him as "the most cyber criminal in the world". The NYT story contained details of the hacker's crimes, financial data such as homes, cars, yachts and photos reminiscent of movies with the FBI.
O Bogachev He has long been wanted for his hacking activity as he has "expropriated" millions of dollars from businesses around the world and controlled hundreds of thousands of computers. The malware of GameOver Zeus made him literally rich.
Bugachev, according to the New York Times, is believed to work with the Russian secret services. He was, moreover, one of the people who under President Obama 2016 imposed sanctions in response to the case of Russian hacking aimed at influencing the presidential elections in the United States.

According to the article, Bogechev owns two villas in France and a fleet of cars parked all over Europe so that he never has to rent a vehicle on his vacation. He has a lot of luxury cars, but he prefers the Jeep Grand Cherokee. He owns a yacht. He is extremely paranoid. He lives on the surface with his name.
There is no extradition agreement between the US and Russia, and anyway the Russians have no intention of cooperating with the US in this fight against hacking, so Bogachev can continue to spend his huge fortune. At present, there is one 3 Million Dollar Fee for the capture of Bogachev.
