Grant West was found guilty of phishing data from 165,000 people and selling it on for Bitcoin.

At his home, police found an SD containing details for 63,000 credit cards, details for over 500 businesses, and a staggering 7,000,000 email addresses and passwords.

West amassed a £2million fortune in Bitcoin before being caught out.

To make matters worse for West, his girlfriend was also arrested for holding half a kilo of cannabis and £25,000 in cash.

Justice prevails!
