FBI Arrests Two Men for Hacking Photobucket Accounts

The FBI arrested two men who allegedly broke into Photobucket user accounts and sold off access to password-protected accounts using software named with a profane twist to the Photobucket moniker. Brandon Bourret, 39, from Colorado Springs, and Athanasios Andrianakis, 26, from Sunnyvale, Calif., are accused of creating a software application that that circumvented security settings to get access to user names, passwords and protected albums.
