A Russian citizen has been indicted for working as an “access broker” and selling unauthorized access to computer networks, including a victim company in New Jersey, U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger, District of New Jersey, announced.
Evgeniy Doroshenko, 31, also known as “Eugene Doroshenko,” “FlankerWWH,” and “Flanker,” of Astrakhan, Russia, faces charges of one count of wire fraud and one count of fraud and related activity in connection with computers.
According to court documents and statements, from February 2019 to May 2024, Doroshenko orchestrated a scheme to gain unlawful access to victims’ computer systems.
