  • The United States Most Wanted Hacker, "The Original Internet Godfather", Brett Johnson

    Send us Fan Mail

    Brett Johnson was responsible for refining modern financial cybercrime as we know it today. He is referred to by the United States Secret Service as "The Original Internet Godfather". After being placed on the United States Most Wanted List, captured and convicted of 39 felonies, Brett promptly escaped prison. Captured again, Brett served his time, accepted responsibility, and found redemption through his loved ones and the help of the FBI.  This story is one of the craziest things I've ever heard.
