T-K Worm Creators Jailed For Hacking

By

The hackers that created the T-K Worm back in 2001-2003 have been jailed for their coding efforts. They got off lightly if you ask me as they only servered three to six months in jail.

Andrew Harvey, 24, of Sherburn Village, Co Durham, was jailed for three months, and Jordan Bradley, 22, of Darlington, was jailed for six months, on Friday. The men admitted a conspiracy charge in May this year for their part in creating what was called the T-K Worm. It used internet chat channels to infect other computers which then gave the hackers control of them. They were arrested in 2003 after a joint investigation by hi-tech crime officers in Britain and the US.
