Alleged Jabber Zeus Coder 'MrICQ' Extradited to U.S.

🔒 A Ukrainian man long accused of building and operating components of the Jabber Zeus banking trojan has been arrested in Italy and is now in U.S. custody. Prosecutors say 41-year-old Yuriy Igorevich Rybtsov, previously identified only by the handle MrICQ, was charged in a 2012 Nebraska indictment as a developer and notification handler for the group. Investigators allege Jabber Zeus used a custom ZeuS variant and a Leprechaun component to intercept credentials and bypass multi-factor protections, enabling large payroll thefts via recruited money mules.
