U.S. indicts foreigners for hacking RBS WorldPay

A U.S. grand jury indicted several foreigners on charges that they hacked a computer network used by the credit card processing company RBS WorldPay and stole more than $9 million, the U.S. Justice Department said on Tuesday.

The group, which included people from Estonia, Russia and Moldova, was accused of compromising the data encryption used by RBS WorldPay, which is part of Royal Bank of Scotland, gaining access to some accounts, and withdrawing the money from automated machines around the world, the government said.
