Connor Moucka, accused of stealing large amounts of customer data from companies that used Snowflake’s cloud storage services, has agreed to be extradited to the US to face charges, Cyberscoop reports. Around 165 companies were affected by the Snowflake breaches, including AT&T and Ticketmaster.
Alexander “Connor” Moucka, who was arrested in Canada on October 30th at the request of the US government, agreed to the extradition in writing before a judge in the Superior Court of Justice in Kitchener last Friday, waiving Canada’s requirement for a 30-day waiting period.
Moucka is facing 20 federal charges that include violations of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. He and his alleged co-conspirator, John Binns, are accused of collecting around $2.5 million worth of ransom from victims.
A US soldier was previously arrested in December in connection with the Snowflake breaches, and was reported by KrebsOnSecurity to have seemingly posted hacked call logs for both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, who were presidential candidates at the time.
Last May, Ticketmaster’s parent company Live Nation, which used Snowflake’s services, confirmed that the data of 560 million users were being sold on hacking websites. AT&T, Santander Bank, Advanced Auto Parts, and Lending Tree subsidiary Quote Wizard later also confirmed that millions of customers were affected by these breaches.
