Israeli hacker who trades in Madonna’s songs, imprisoned
39-year-old hacker Edie Lezerman, who cracked Madonna’s computer and sold her songs on the Internet before the new album was released, was sentenced to 14 months in prison. He will also have to pay a fine of about 4 thousand dollars.
The investigation also says that, having seized the accounts and passwords to the mail of Hollywood celebrities, the hacker began to receive their correspondence on his computer. Thousands of e-mail messages were found on the hard disk of his computer, whose recipients were other people.
Hacker sold a few unreleased Madonna songs on online auctions for a price in excess of 1.000 dollars.
The Israeli was first detained on January 21. His capture was the result of cooperation between LAHAV-433's Cyber Division and the FBI. After being placed under house arrest, Leatherman continued his illegal activities and was detained again on February 17.
