![I. BACKGROUND
A. Wagenius’ Criminal Activities
1. Wagenius Attempted to Extort Victim-1
1 While Transferring Highly Sensitive
Stolen Data
The charged conduct relates to Wagenius’ multiple public online posts on or about
November 6, 2024, using his online monikers, kiberphant0m and cyb3rph4nt0m.
Specifically, Wagenius posted highly sensitive call detail records purportedly belonging
high-ranking public officials and their family members and threatened to release additional
phone records belonging to the same individual victims unless Victim-1, a major
telecommunications company, contacted him or an intermediary to pay a ransom.
In addition to the public posts, Wagenius engaged in multiple direct attempts to
extort Victim-1. Wagenius demanded $500,000 and made clear threats to Victim-1:
Lets start off, a little thing you should know about me. I get what I want and when
I don’t get what I want in my own timeframes that I set I will do what I say. I don’t
care if I don’t receive the money involved in the extortions. I already made your
samples and data on [REDACTED] available to everybody on breachforums. I will
leak much much much more, literally all of it.
These threats were made while Wagenius was on active duty with the U.S. Army,
2
stationed
at Fort Cavazos. Pursuant to a search warrant, the government identified copies of the
sensitive phone records on Wagenius’ devices](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:g6asx7scljsgdu3vqwtyfszj/bafkreih7d3er2vdp3clxdd33oemwpjz3t2gu7lswcgnxg7i7srekhvn3wi)
