Teen Hacks AOL

In a complaint filed in Criminal Court of the City of New York, the DA’s office alleges that between December 24, 2006 and April 7, 2007, 17-year old Mike Nieves committed offenses like computer tampering, computer trespass, and criminal possession of computer material.

It’s hard not to laugh, but this kid took full advantage of his entry into AOLs computers, even going as far as logging into over fifty AOL employees AIM accounts. AOL can’t be very happy, as their security was comprised using simple hacking tools and cost them upwards of $500K.
