MMOG Gangsters Brought to Justice

The Inquirer is reporting on the crackdown of a virtual gang by police. The officers caught the thugs who are "charged with stealing virtual wonga [ed. - UK slang for money] and around 50,000 usernames and passwords from multi-playing gamers. The ringleader, a Mr Lee, is reported to have hired a gang of Chinese hackers who sent in the Trojan horses to pinch the online identities."

Account information = billing information = possible realy identity theft depending on how much information you can get from the account management screens.
