Evil Corp: 'My hunt for the world's most wanted hackers' | BBC News

Many of the people on the FBI's cyber most wanted list are Russian. While some allegedly work for the government earning a normal salary, others are accused of making a fortune from ransomware attacks and online theft. If they left Russia they'd be arrested - but at home they appear to be given free rein.

They got the name, Evil Corp, from a U.S. TV show, Mr Robot.
