2 Norwegian Teen Hackers of "TeaMp0isoN" Arrested By British Police (PCeU)
Earlier in last month MI6 arrested the leader of TeaMp0isoN code named "TriCk" along with few other active members who ware directly involved behind the Denial of Service attack on MI6. Now two Norwegian teenagers, aged 18 and 19, have been arrested in connection with the distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack on the web site for the UK's Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA) and for swamping British intelligence agency (MI6) hotline with automated Skype calls. These two hackers ware the active members of hacker collective TeaMp0isoN and MLT. These two suspects are arrested in Newcastle on Wednesday evening, and is being questioned about offences under the Computer Misuse Act. Computer equipment has been seized for forensic analysis - and no doubt investigators are hoping that they may find digital clues which could help uncover other suspected hackers. Erik Moestue, a Norwegian prosecutor, said "We have arrested the two we think were most important in these attacks, but we still want to talk to more people". The offence that the two stand accused of carries a maximum jail sentence of six years. "The case is still under investigation," added Moestue, noting that "It is still too early to say anything about the motive for the actions"
The authorities, no doubt, will be hoping to confirm that they have arrested the correct man. Certainly, MLT's Twitter account has been silent since 6:27pm on Wednesday evening. According to the authorities these arrest is part of an ongoing investigation by the Police Central e-Crime Unit (PCeU) division of the Metropolitan Police into various hacking gangs who have made headlines in the last year or so.
Earlier TeaMp0isoN was directly involved with Anonymous in #OpRobinHood #OpCensorThis. Also they have found SQL-i vulnerability on the Official NASA forum, and like this attack TeaMp0isoN also hacked English Defence League (EDL) ,T-Mobile USA, BlackBerry blog and many more.
