Canadian Man Pleads Guilty in Snowflake Extortions – Krebs on Security

Connor Riley Moucka, a 26-year-old Canadian man known online as 'Judische' and 'Waifu,' has pleaded guilty to computer fraud and conspiracy for hacking and extorting over 165 organizations that used Snowflake's cloud storage platform between February and October 2024. The attackers exploited stolen credentials targeting Snowflake accounts without MFA enabled, stealing billions of sensitive records including 100 million AT&T customer call and text histories. Victims included TicketMaster, Lending Tree, Advance Auto Parts, and Neiman Marcus. Conspirators made over $2.5 million in ransom payments. Co-conspirator Cameron 'Kiberphant0m' Wagenius, a U.S. Army soldier, pleaded guilty in July 2025 and faces sentencing in September 2026. A third co-conspirator, John Erin Binns, recently obtained Turkish citizenship, shielding him from extradition. Moucka faces a mandatory minimum of two years and up to 30 years in prison, with sentencing set for October 27.
