On February 25, 2020, U.S. Attorney Brian T. Moran announced that former Microsoft software engineer Volodymyr Kvashuk was convicted of 18 federal felonies, including access device fraud and access to a protected computer in furtherance of fraud, which Kvashuk committed during a scheme to defraud Microsoft of more than $10 million in digital currency.
Following the five-day jury trial that found Kvashuk guilty on 18 counts, a judge will issue a sentence of up to 20 years in prison on June 1, 2020.
