Florida Woman Accused of Computer Breach in Portland and Million-Dollar Theft
PORTLAND, Ore. – A woman from Florida has been accused of breaching a computer network in Portland and stealing over a million dollars. The suspect, identified as Paige Thompson, allegedly accessed the system of a Portland-based company without authorization and stole funds totaling $1.1 million.
Thompson, who is also known as the hacker “ERRATA,” has a history of involvement in cybercrime. She previously gained notoriety for her role in a data breach at a major credit reporting agency that compromised the personal information of millions of people.
Authorities have been working to bring Thompson to justice for her alleged crimes. She is facing multiple charges related to computer fraud, wire fraud, and conspiracy to commit wire fraud. If convicted, she could face significant prison time and fines.
The case serves as a reminder of the importance of cybersecurity measures for businesses and individuals. Companies must take steps to protect their networks and data from unauthorized access, while individuals should be vigilant about safeguarding their personal information online. Thompson’s alleged actions highlight the serious consequences of cybercrime and the need for effective law enforcement efforts to combat such threats.
