The alleged leaders of an international ring of computer hackers were charged Thursday in New Jersey with stealing at least 160 million credit and debit card numbers and causing hundreds of millions of dollars in losses in what U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman called the largest scheme of its kind ever prosecuted in the United States.

Five men from Russia and Ukraine – three of whom remained at large – were named in an 11-count indictment unsealed in Newark following an investigation by the U.S. Secret Service that grew out of an earlier hacking case.

Fishman said the highly sophisticated group targeted some of the world’s largest corporations, causing losses that “are staggering.”"
