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 put hundreds of thousands of computers under his control. The malware of GameOver Zeus, literally made him 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.

In another photo on Twitter, he is seen holding a Bengal cat while wearing leopard pajamas and glasses of helium indoors.
According to the article Bogachev owns two villas in France and a fleet of cars parked across Europe so he never needs to rent a vehicle on vacation. He owns many luxury cars, but prefers Jeep Grands Cherokee. He owns a yacht. He is extremely paranoid. He lives on the surface with his name.
There is no extradition treaty between the US and RussiaAnd anyway, the Russians are in no mood to cooperate with the US in this fight against hacking, so Bogachev can continue to spend his vast fortune. For now, there is one 3 Million Dollar Fee for the capture of Bogachev.
