A 26-year-old from Kitchener, Ontario was one of several hackers who stole customer data and payment information from over 560 million Ticketmaster accounts. He currently faces up over 30 years in prison on counts of computer fraud, wire fraud, aggravated identity theft and a related conspiracy.

A Canadian citizen has pleaded guilty in a massive cybertheft case that includes Ticketmaster data.

Connor Moucka, a 26-year-old Kitchener, Ontario resident, has pleaded guilty for his role in the 2024 Snowflake Inc. data breach in which customers' private information was compromised from the company's cloud storage. The hackers notably obtained data from companies like Ticketmaster, its parent company Live Nation and AT&T.
